Thailand struggles to win back Chinese tourists during Golden Week holiday

BANGKOK (Reuters) - As China kicked off its "Golden Week" holiday on Monday, Thailand said it was struggling to lure back visitors from its biggest source of tourists, after a boat accident in July that killed dozens.

Lured by Thailand's proximity and plentiful attractions, visitors from China accounted for nearly a third of last year's record 35.38 million arrivals in the Southeast Asian nation.
