Thailand has done extremely well on the economic and industrial front. Be it export business, industries, energy, agriculture, services, or telecommunications, Thailand is not lagging far behind other countries.
Thailand’s economy is booming and is largely due to its export business of rice and agricultural products. Other products that are exported and contribute to the country’s GDP are tin, textiles, fish products, tapioca, jewelry, gemstones, computer, and electronic appliances. Industries and services contribute 32 percent and 48 percent respectively to the country’s economy while agriculture contributes around 13 percent.
The capital of Thailand, Bangkok is noted for its gemstones and beautiful gold and silver jewelry.
Thailand has also kept pace with the Technology age and has shown a lot of progress in the field of computers and electronics. One of the projects undertaken is was that of Bangkok’s international airport and now it has been completed successfully. The airport sports two runways and several parking lots for airbuses and aircrafts. This will add more fuel to the booming tourism industry in Thailand. Tourism is an important contributing factor to Thailand’s economy.
In the retail sector, Thailand is thriving as well. Mega projects such as development of sprawling shopping malls are in the pipeline. Several foreign companies have invested in the retail business there.
The telecommunications sector has undergone many changes. The most important change was the privatization of a couple of state telecom agencies. Another major change was marked by the removal of phone locks and usage of Mobile Equipment Identity (IEMI) codes by service operators.

Thailand, The Breathtaking Country
The Kingdom of Thailand lies in the heart of Southeast Asia, spread across 513,115 square kilometers. It is equal to the size of France and a little smaller than Texas. The capital of Thailand is Bangkok. Other cities of Thailand are Nakhon Ratchasima, Chiang Mai and Muang.
To make a very interesting trip to an unforgettable place, Thailand is a nice option to think over. You can see the famous ruins of kingdoms. The culture in Thailand is highly influenced by two countries, India and China. English is commonly spoken here so you will not find a communication problem there.
Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Udon and Ubon are the main cities of Thailand. Patong, Karon beach in Phuket, Pattaya, Khao Lak, chiang mai and Sukhothai Historical Park are famous places to visit. In the heartland of Thailand you'll have the opportunity to trek, explore lost kingdoms, ride elephants, walk with tigers, raft and visit, and even stay with, hill tribe people!
Thailand has a tropical climate. It is usually sunny from February to May, with an average temperature of 34 degree Celsius. This period is the hottest time of the year in Thailand. Monsoon arrives around the month of June. Plenty of rainfall coupled with sunshine is the typical climate in Thailand from June to October.
The temperature is moderate and usually hovers around 29 degree Celsius. November to January is the best time of the year with a temperature of 28 degree Celsius. Compared to other parts, the northern and northeastern part of the county experiences cooler temperatures during evening and nighttime.
All of that make Thailand is great value; an outstandingly beautiful country; the people are warm and welcoming; it offers a multitude of outdoor activities; it's home to wonderful ruins of ancient kingdoms as well as present day temples; the food is out of this world and the country has some of the finest beaches on the planet.

The Kingdom of Thailand
Why are so many people fascinated from this kingdom? Maybe because it was never colonized by the Europeans and therefore remained original and unique without the dominating influence of European culture or language (colonialism). Speaking in geographical terms Thailand's surface area makes a large part of South East Asia. Its territory extends from the Himalaya foothill to the Malayan peninsula, also embracing the Golf of Thailand. If people see this on a map Thailand's territory often reminds them of an elephant's feature. Altogether Thailand has a surface are of about 513.000 square kilometers.
But surely it is not the elephant's shape on the map which influences so many people to travel to Thailand. The northern part of the kingdom is very hilly. There you have a very dry climate in summer and people who live there a very poor since agriculture is nearly impossible due to the lack of rain. But the central part and south east coast of Thailand are completely different. Here you have a humid climate because of the Golf of Thailand which surrounds this part of the country. The average temperature is about 18° Celsius.
When tourists decide to travel to Thailand they will not think about the seasons of the year but check how many rain there is for example from June to September when it's monsoon time. In the months before monsoon there are the highest temperatures of the year - quite often around 40° Celsius. So when you like cooler temperatures and not so many rain you should decide to travel between November and February.
Now what can you see in Thailand? It's a very colourful country. First of all you have the impressive capital Bangkok (the Thais call it Krung Trep) with its fascinating mixture of tradition and modernism. No problem to walk the streets of Bankgok and see a Buddhist monk talking with his mobile.
