Eastern Thailand is a region of Thailand bordering Cambodia on the east and Central Thailand on the west.
Geography
Eastern Thailand lies between the Sankambeng Range, which forms the border of the Northeastern plateau to the north and the Gulf of Thailand to the south. The geography of the region is characterised by short mountain ranges alternating with small basins of short rivers which drain into the Gulf of Thailand.
Fruit is a major component of agriculture in the area, and tourism plays a strong part in the economy. The region's coastal location has helped promote the Eastern Seaboard industrial development, a major factor in the economy of the region.[1]
There are some offshore islands off Eastern Thailand's coast, like Ko Sichang, Ko Lan, Ko Samet and Ko Chang.
