In spite of the global tourism slump in 2009, Thailand and the Thai travel and tourism industry continued to win numerous awards and be rated highly in survey rankings, a clear indicator of the high level of confidence in the quality of the kingdom’s travel products and services.



Mr. Suraphon Svetasreni, TAT Governor said, “The Thai travel and tourism industry is very proud to be recognised thus. Thailand is known the world over for its hospitality, friendly people and excellent service standards, all factors which contribute towards making it one of the most popular global destinations.”

A listing of the awards and rankings:
Thailand was ranked Number One on the list of the most friendly places for expats to live by the HSBC Bank International’s survey in 2009. It was also rated among the top countries in terms of quality accommodation.

Launched in 2008, the Expat Explorer survey positions itself as “the largest independent global survey of expats.” Commissioned by the HSBC Bank International and conducted by a third-party research company, the survey covered more than 3,100 expats living in 50 countries about the opportunities and challenges they experience living away from home.

Conducted between February and April 2009, the survey revealed that expats enjoy a better life in their new country, with the majority claiming an increase in the quality of living compared with life back home.

Thailand was one of the best performing locations for expats, ranking third overall. Expats residing in Thailand reported being “more satisfied with their quality of life than the majority of their counterparts elsewhere.”
