Would Thailand Survive Without Sex Tourism?

What would happen if Thailand completely eliminated prostitution? Would millions of tourists stop coming, or is the country's appeal much bigger than its nightlife? After living in Thailand for more than 30 years, I share my thoughts on how much sex tourism really contributes to Thailand's economy, who would still visit, who might stay away, and whether Thailand could thrive without it. This isn't a moral debate—it's a discussion about tourism, economics, perception, and the future of one of the world's most visited countries. What do you think? Would tourism drop by 5%, 20%, 50%...or hardly at all? Let me know in the comments. 👍 If you enjoy thoughtful discussions about Thailand, please like, subscribe, and join the conversation.
