Thailand
Exotic vacation paradise, permanent Asian smile, relative prosperity - Thailand's greatest asset is tourism. The emerging country has been able to significantly reduce poverty in recent decades. And yet, not everything is as beautiful as it seems at first glance. Extreme poverty, especially in rural areas, and sex tourism with all its ugly consequences have become a major problem.
