Pattaya, 2nd April 2018: Pattaya is a seaside resort on the Eastern Gulf Coast of Thailand about 150 km southeast of Bangkok. Pattaya is mostly famous for its go-go and beer bars, but local authorities have made some efforts to provide more family-friendly attractions and activities.
“It is not possible in India, although the sex industry is still going strong and sex tourism remains the key money earner for Pattaya, the resort also attracts local families and holidaymakers from around the world,” said Sandeep Marwah Managing Director of National Federation of Tourism And Transport Cooperatives of India Limited at press meet at Hilton Hotels and Resorts at Pattaya.
Pattaya attracts 8 million tourists in a year. Thailand, Russia and China were the top three markets for Pattaya with a combined market share of 59 per cent. They were followed by Germany and Taiwan, thus displacing the British who have traditionally been seen as the largest foreign group.
“Looking back, tourism growth in Pattaya entered a new age with the opening of Suvarnabhumi international airport in 2006 and the subsequent opening of the fast-track motorway linking to the Eastern Seaboard resort.” Added Marwah also President of Asian Institute of Hospitality and Tourism.
Bangkok 31stMarch, 2018: The renowned Global Art and Cultural Minister Sandeep Marwah visited Bangkok in Thailand and was well received by the people of Thailand at Bangkok the capital of country.
“The culture and arts of Thailand have been influenced by India and to a lesser extent China as well as by ancient civilization in Cambodia, Laos, Burma, Malaysia and Indonesia,” said Sandeep Marwah President of Marwah Studios in a press meet at Hotel Grand Hyatt at Bangkok.
“Perhaps the two greatest influences on Thai culture are Buddhism and The Ramakien (the Thai version of the Indian epic, the Ramayana). Many elements from the Indian-Hindu tradition hold a high place in the Thai arts,” added Marwah also Managing Director of National Federation of Tourism And Transport Cooperative of India Limited.
Apart from architecture and sculpture, the height of Thai culture is also reflected in literature, music, and the performing arts. Thai literary works are a treasure trove of wisdom, entertaining stories, clever word play, food for thought, Buddhist principles, and historical facts.
