In today's world it is more important than ever for countries to manage how they are perceived. International prestige and clout, exports, foreign investment and tourism are all closely tied to a country's image. Powered by Perception Metrics*, East West Nation Brand Perception Reports provide detailed analysis of how your country is perceived in major media throughout the world, compiled by state-of-the-art computer programs that draw on massive data resources. Can you guess where Thailand is ranked in the list of 200 countries? We are not first as that honour belongs to Singapore. We didn't even beat Columbia or Bosnia. We are in fact quite a long way down the list. Check out our placement here:

I don't think I know anyone who as a casual tourist would consider Rwanda or Burma ahead of Thailand. A lot of people are just interested in beaches and sunshine and as long as there are reasonably cheap flights and packages to be had people will keep coming, and travel agents will keep pushing them. Those with a bit of experience will know that it's quite rare for Thai politics to have any impact on tourism, like the closing of the airport.
Competition, especially on price, from newly-established beach resorts would have a much more significant effect than more positive media mentions for Burma, Rwanda, Andorra or Ireland. |

I always give Thailand a big "up" when talking to people about the manufactured goods there as a lot of them don`t know the difference between chinese made "goods"? and Thai goods. |
