Now, Thailand is popular among more and more tourists from the world, including Chinese. In Thailand we should do the things as Thais (泰国人） do. When we can't do all the things as Thais, we should at least learn and respect(尊重) their customs (风俗). Here's something about their customs.21·世纪*教育网
Personal appearance (外表) is very important in Thailand as a sign of respect for other people. Your clothes should be tidy, clean and free from holes. Shorts and sleeveless (无袖的) shirts are not welcomed in churches (教堂.) Remember that you will need to take off your shoes when entering rooms, so don't wear shoes that are slow to get on and off. The rules are even stricter(严格) with foreign visitors, so even if you see a local in shorts, it's not OK for everyone.【21教育名师】
It's not polite to touch a Thai on the head, including children. At the same time, don't touch people with your feet, or even point with them because they think feet are dirty and low.【21教育】
If someone is sitting with outstretched (伸出的) feet, don't step over them, because this is very rude. It could even make people angry. Even if the person is sleeping, it is best to go around until he or she notices and lets you go out.

What do you know about Singapore
新加坡共和国，简称新加坡，旧称新嘉坡、星洲或星岛，别称为狮城，是东南亚的一个岛国，政治体制实行议会制共和制。新加坡北隔柔佛海峡与马来西亚为邻，南隔新加坡海峡与印度尼西亚相望，毗邻马六甲海峡南口，国土除新加坡岛（占全国面积的88.5%）之外，还包括周围63个小岛。
新加坡公民主要以4大族群来区分：华人占了人口的74.2%，还有马来族（13.3%）、印度裔（9.1%）和欧亚裔/混血（3.4%）等公民。大多数新加坡华人的祖先源自于中国南方，尤其是福建，广东和海南省，其中4成是闽南人，其次为潮汕人、广府人、莆仙人（莆田人）、海南人、福州人、客家人，还有峇峇、娘惹等。
新加坡是一个多语言的国家，拥有4种官方语言，即英语，马来语，华语和泰米尔语。基于和马来西亚的历史渊源，《新加坡宪法》明定马来语为新加坡的国语，主要是尊重新加坡原住民所使用的语言。由于内在和外在因素的考量，新加坡采用英语，作为主要的通行语和教学语。
新加坡是一个美食天堂。多元的文化和丰富的历史使新加坡拥有了足以骄傲的美食。来自中国、印度、马来西亚等诸多国家的饮食文化在这个亚洲美食的大熔炉里的火热碰撞、各显所长。
