In my opinion, "suicide tourism" is not a good market to attract for Thai tourism because most of Thai people may not accept as they think it is too cruel. But it is an good opportunity to introduce this to Thailand because it is new and there must be some target group who interested. And if we want to target this marget, we should prepare by do an observation, give more information of suicide tourism and also check the law in Thailand.

ReplyDeletei think"suicide tourism" is not a good market to attract for Thai tourism. I think tourism. In order to make people to commit suicide in the country, is what should not, because those who travel in that might lead to infections published domestic. It also makes the country's reputation that people came to commit suicide.Name Rapeeporn Aupara Sec.01 ID.5403361
ReplyDeleteThe " suicide tourism " isn't a good market to attract for Thai people. Cause in Thailand, they have many ethics and culture. Thai people don't accept this action, it so hard to accept in Buddhism country.
ReplyDeleteBut if we want this target, I think that interesting too. You should to give information of " suicide tourism ", for Thai people to understand. And prepare about law too.

I think "suicide tourism" is a good market to attract for Thai tourist. Specially for people who's had neurological disorders. These people can't live like normal. they can't seek happiness like others. they feel hopeless to live.
ReplyDeleteFirst thing to prepared is laws. Suicide law in Thailand must be opened for this kind of tourist. Explain the reason to Thai people to understand their purpose.

ReplyDeleteI think Thailand is not ready for suicide. Due to its status as the political, economic stress has not much need to step up suicide and tourism management. when contrast with Japan, the developed countries. they have a lot of suicide in the forest. Therefore, Thailand is not ready to suiside tourism.

I think that if there suicide tourism laws need to be made clear. And most people agree. Correct procedures. And to help those who suffer from the disease.

I think that the idea of "suicide tourism" market is not the best of Thailand. Thailand is required by law because of the absolute majority of people in Thailand may not agree with the killing of a cruel, but if there is a market for this tour, I think that if a country is rich and want to buy the last of them, I was happy to offer the best to this group visitors to use the toilet, it is full of everything that they want to die.

I think we should prepare to change law,beliefs and values of thailand. That is a great market and attraction in thailand,but we should to cooperate with these changes for better marketing.

ReplyDeleteI think "Suicide Tourism" is good for who don't want to live anymore or some neurological disorders. in the other side Thailand is not open for it. if we want to prepare for "Suicide Tourism" we have to discount a ticket fly to Switzerland, complimentary room.

Ping, you mean that suicide tourism might be a good market for outbound tourism? Will Thai tourists adopt this market?
DeleteI think suicide tourism is not good to attract for Thai tourism because when someone ruins something it's going to effect everything and it's not easy to make it be like the past
ReplyDeleteIf we want to target this market we have to prepare about the rules or limit for these people and give them more information about what is right or wrong

Jirada, you haven't answered my question. I simply asked you will this market work in Thailand? Will Thai society accept this market? Can we do that? Will tourists come to Thailand for that purpose?
Deletesuicide tourism that its good for patient. some disease can't be treat. that made the patients suffering they waiting to gone. So it is important for patients not wait to gone and suffering. and then suicide tourism can make money for their country a lot.

i think "suicide tourism" is not good for Thailand because it's depressed for Thai and image.I think these tourists are not work, not acceptable and immoral in Buddhism. But,if Thailand would like to attract "suicide tourism",The government have to resolve the law and have to get acceptable from population too.

I think suicide tourism is not good market to attract for Thai tourism. I think it’s not a right thing to do and I can’t stand it. It’s bad for Thailand image. If we want to target this market, we have to prepare the law first and prepare for the objection.
ReplyDeleteName: Miss Kanokvilai Khongpho Sec02: ID:5502221
I think "suicide tourism" isn't good for Thailand. Because don't have culture for supporting this tourism in Thailand. But if we would like to do this tourism we have to ask for permission and tourist have to document from doctor after that we bring a tourist to Switzerland. But!! suicide tourism in Thailand it is so difficult.
ReplyDelete5503760 : Sasiwimol Pladsena.
I think it is impossible because Thai's traditions is different from European country. Thai people will find that commit suicide is really bad for their after death's life so this business isn't suit with Thai's traditions and Thai's law.
ReplyDeleteName: Thunrada Tiratarakul ID: 5601162 Sec:02
Actually, I think it's impossible in Thailand. Because it's immoral and Thai people can't accept this tourism. But if Thailand want to target this market, I think we should prepare about law for this tourism or get agreement from Thai people. But I think it's difficult to make people in country to understand and accept that.

I think that "tourism suicide" is a great idea for attracting patients to despair, but to Thailand, I think it would not be good for tourist, since Thailand is a perfect family may already be. a minority contractor with tour type 5503768 Panupong Nakmit.

ReplyDeleteSuide tourism can attract for Thai tourism in the campaign of "Land of hope". We can promote this campaign for any tourists wish to commit suicide should come to Thailnd which will make them see the value of life, then they will change their mind. We need to prepare the some suicide package tour showing the tourists for the nice image of Thai culture, livelihoods of rural people which they can live by helping each other, not theāļ object value and also establish more phychological clinics at each tourist city.

In my opinion, suicide tourism is a good market to attract for Thai tourism. It will be a new tourism of Thai tourism, and it can attract a new groub of tourists (suicide tourists), both Thai tourists and foreign tourists. And it will be also a good income for Thai tourism. If we want to target this maket, we need to prepare both a law to support suicide tourism and give Thai people a correct information about this tourism.

I think the journey to suicide is not suitable to Thailand. Because the laws are still not agree with the market the journey to commit suicide. But acceptable in some countries because the decision itself.

I think the suicide tourism is not appropriate in Thailand, but it is appropriate for some cases of patients only such as disordered patient for many years or waiting for the death. Anyway, this should be permitted by the patients and relatives in the family.
