A companion Twitter account, Two Price Thailand, is also online with 2,100 followers. The reference is to venues that post the prices for Thai visitors in Thai numerals, which most foreigners cannot read. “Many Thais and foreigners agree that the dual pricing system is hurting the image of both the tourism industry and Thailand itself. At Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park, which straddles Loei, Phitsanulok and Phetchabun, admission for Thai adults is 40 baht but foreigners pay 500 baht. Tanes Petsuwan, deputy governor for marketing communications for the Tourism Authority of Thailand, said he was not happy about foreigners being subject to dual pricing.
