555 this is probably gonna backfire. The way to attract rich people is to have stuff that rich people want, not to push away the middle and lower tier travellers. Rich people, by definition, have a lot of options, why would they choose Thailand over literally any other country in the world? It's also tremendously short sighted, today's "low quality" teenaged backpacker from Europe or America might be a millionaire 20 years from now who might wish to return to the place they built such fond memories in their youth and have a lot of money to throw around this time. This is just like that rice fixing thing under Thaksin, Thais always wanna act like they have a cartel when in reality they have loads of competition who would be more than willing to undercut their prices. This is so unbelievably backwards, you don't RAISE prices to deal with lack of customers. This is gonna be hilarious to watch.
