Why do European and American tourists love to go to Thailand for the elderly?

Thailand is no stranger to us. It is a new tourist country in recent years. China tourists also love to travel to Thailand, which has become one of the most frequently visited countries by China tourists. In addition to China tourists, European and American tourists are also the key targets of Thailand's tourism industry. Unlike China tourists, many European and American tourists go to Thailand to support their old age.

This also puzzles many people. Although Thailand's economy has developed well in recent years, it is still a developing country. Many countries in Europe and America are developed countries with better welfare policies. Moreover, Thailand is not close to European and American countries. Why did they choose to come to Thailand to support the elderly?

0 1 Thailand's tourism industry is developed, and a large number of European and American tourists come here to support the elderly.

Thailand's economy has developed well in recent years, in which tourism has played a very important role. In 20 18, Thailand's tourism revenue reached 600 billion, ranking first in the world, even far exceeding those developed countries such as Japan and South China. Tourists are also frequent visitors to Thailand's tourism industry and the largest overseas group in Thailand. In addition, many Europeans and Americans come here to support the elderly.

Thailand is known as one of the seven major old-age resorts in the world, and Thailand's own policies also support foreigners to come to Thailand to support the elderly. People who have reached the age of 50 in Thailand and have 800,000 baht in Thai banks can support the elderly in Thailand and sign a pension visa. At present, there are more than 6.5438+0.8 million foreigners providing for the aged in Thailand, most of whom are handled by European and American tourists.

Female tour guides tell the reason, and cheap is not the only reason.

Many people don't understand why people in developed countries in Europe and America don't want to support the elderly in their own countries. Experienced female tour guides in Thailand explained that many people in Europe and America have poor economic level. Although they also have pensions, they don't live much in the local area. After all, the prices in Europe and America are relatively high, while those in Thailand are very low. Take the house price as an example. Even in very popular cities such as Phuket and Bangkok, the house price only needs about 20,000 RMB. In some ordinary places, house prices are much lower. In addition, the prices in Thailand are generally much lower than those in Europe and America, which is also a big reason why foreigners like to come to Thailand to support the elderly.

But cheap is not the only reason why Europeans and Americans want to live in Thailand. Thailand is a country with a pleasant climate, the environment is very warm and comfortable, even in winter, and the hospitals here are very cheap, which is not suitable for the elderly.

Thailand also has a "wife rental service" specially prepared for the elderly. You can rent a wife to take care of your daily life. For Europeans and Americans, the price is not high, but for Thais, it means high salary, and you can find someone to take care of yourself at a lower price. In Europe and America, the labor cost is too high, and the price of hiring a nanny is too high for many people to afford.
