How do the locals feel about Indian visitors these days?

The title, pretty much.

When i first visited Phuket in 2007-8, I (a 2nd generation Indian-Australian) was mildly amused to see a couple of shopkeepers say things like “we don’t sell to Indians” when we walked past.

It was pretty strange but i didn’t think much of it as the Thai locals were overwhelmingly lovely and treated us the same as any other visitor.

I’m headed back in the next few weeks with a big group of friends, all of a similar ethnicity, so I’m wondering what to expect. I suspect we will be spending a lot of time at the beer bars and beach clubs.
