                                                Trouble time in Thailand  ZHANG Jin was excited to get the bonus (奖励) of a free trip to Thailand from his company. But the manager from Qingdao, Shandong province, didn’t expect to have a dangerous experience.
  The next day, upon Zhang’s arrival in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, he was shocked to find himself in a city filled with street battles (战斗) between two groups. One group was supporting the Thai government while the other was against it.
  The anti-government (反政府的) group has taken a number of actions recently. It took over the prime minister’s (总理) office in August and had street battles with the police. Two people were reported to be killed and hundreds injured.
  Last month the anti-government group took over two international airports in Bangkok and stopped all flights. About 240,000 foreign tourists, including over 3,000 Chinese people like Zhang, were forced to stay in the country.
  “We were nervous on the streets. But we felt at home with other Chinese from Hong Kong or Taiwan,” said Zhang.
  Luckily, the Chinese government sent chartered flights (包机) to bring the people back. Now, all the Chinese tourists are safely back home. “The moment the plane left Thailand, we cheered for joy,” said Zhang.
  Last week Thailand’s prime minister Somchai Wongsawat stepped down and the airports reopened. But the country’s tourism industry needs time to return to normal.
  Tourism is the biggest part of the country’s economy (经济). Thailand is called “Land of Smiles” and has some of Asia’s best beaches. It has made $17 billion (十亿) from 15.5 million tourists this year.
