A Thai government spokesman said the reason for the doubling of the fee was due to the fact that many tourists applied for visas at immigration checkpoints in Thailand rather than applying at Thai embassies or consular offices overseas.

Wherever there is a Chinese footprint, consular service must step up and cover that place.
