The biggest problem Thailand had was their covid restrictions which were toggle "ON" and "OFF" and back "ON" again by the day, week, month. No one could rely on stable policy. It was just how the wind was blowing. That kept most people away from visiting Thailand. Did he not see how tourism was booming in Europe and in many countries outside Europe last year?
