@notclacke@misskey.de @clacke @mishari @notclacke@gnusocial.net @thep it wouldn't be surprised if there is a local Chinese name, since there is a large Thai Chinese minority, especially around the coast and the south. But, those all read Thai script, and their ancestral Chinese language wasn't Mandarin anyway, so the target audience here is tourists from mainland China. In other words my money is on a typo.
