Thailand Expects Record Tourist Arrivals This Year, Thanks to China
Khmer Times | News Portal Cambodia

"... Visitors from China are expected to be a record 7.45 million this year, up nearly 62 percent from 2014..."

The only time I want to be in a huge crowd, when on vacation, would be a sport event, or stage performance / concert, where things are somewhat organized.

I used to enjoy Thai beaches.  Now that beach chair and umbrella 'laws' have been enacted in many places, and jet skis continue to be a hassle.  The interest is waning. 

I expect these large crowds will bring in less revenue and may require increased 'administration' costs.
