Thailand Post Tsunamis
It is the dawn of a new morning in the
beautiful Andaman Beach in Phuket. Vendors start arriving with their colourful
goods; resort workers conscientiously prepare the many lounge chairs and
umbrellas that will shield the noonday sun. The masseuses are waiting near the
trees, chatting as they wait for customers. Life goes on for these Thais who
depend on tourism for their livelihood. Everything is as it has always been,
except for one important detail.
The tourists are nowhere to be found.
After the devastating tsunami that hit this
once tourist-dense area of Southeast Asia the day after Christmas in 2004, the
number of tourists in this picturesque Thai destination has gone down to a mere
handful. Just a year ago you would have seen an almost frenzied horde of
foreigners filling the beaches and the resorts, but today the picture is less
festive, and more sombre.
However, the resilience of the people of
Thailand is evident everywhere, especially where the tsunami's devastation hit
the strongest. They are picking up their lives, continuing to perform their
daily duties even though there is overwhelming evidence that things have
definitely changed.
Tourism in areas near the coast of Thailand is
at an all-time low. Resort operators are feeling the significant lack in tourist
arrivals. Most hotels can only book less than ten percent of their capacity
-despite cut-price rates and cheap packages being offered to lure back the
tourists.

In their frustration, operators now blame unfair media reporting that
focused solely on the tsunami, but failed to report how these places have
'bounced back'.
And the truth of the matter is, they're right.
There really is no reason now not to return. The areas that were most damaged by
the calamity is certainly back on its feet. The west coast of Thailand (which
bore the brunt of the tsunami) is bouncing back, and the infrastructure is back
in place. Just take a drive along the western coast, and you'll be greeted by
such striking natural beauty, the same view that brought travelers here in the
first place. Pristine beaches like Kata Beach, which was spared from the vicious
waves, remains one of the most beautiful in the area, the gorgeous Phi Phi
island is as idyllic as ever, and even the so-called 'James Bond Island ' off
Phang Nga Province is as lovely as it was before the tsunami. Travelling to and
from islands is back to normal, with boat transfers from the mainland all fully
operational.
If you want a taste of paradise minus the
crowds, and at extremely wallet-friendly prices, there has never been a better
time to visit the western coast of Thailand. All the amenities and travel
conveniences are in place. The cost of a great room on the beach and a delicious
meal is achingly low. Even the wily street vendors are offering their goods at
genuine bargain prices. The wonderful scenery is undeniably back to its former
beauty, and the Thais are as hospitable as ever. A little scarred perhaps, but
there with a ready smile, and an infectious optimism. No doubt about it, the
crowds will be back sooner than we think.
We strive to provide only quality
articles, so if there is a specific topic related to thai
that you would like us to cover, please contact us at any time.
And again, thank you to those
contributing daily to our airfare to thailand website.
