‘Tourism for All’ programme returns for its 2020 edition

By THE NATION

 

 

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), together with public and private sector partners, has just launched the fourth edition of its campaign “Tourism for All 2020” as a New Year's present for State welfare cardholders and disadvantaged Thais and is collaborating with 58 partners to offer cardholders entry fee discounts to attractions nationwide.

 

The campaign also incorporates the “Dream Travel: Once in a Lifetime” programme, which offers state welfare cardholders who have volunteered to help their communities, including Village Health Volunteers (VHV), Bangkok Health Volunteers (BHV), Civil Defense Volunteers (CDV) and Social Development and Human Security Volunteers (SDHSV) the chance to win free 400 travel packages for their family.

 

Designed on the concept “Tourism for All”, the campaign aims to have tourism improve the Thai people’s quality of life while also sustainably strengthening Thai society.

 

Thanks to its collaboration with a wide range of partners, every state welfare cardholder will get discounts on entry fees to such attractions as King Rama II Memorial Park, zoos under The Zoological Park Organization, The Golden Jubilee Museum of Agriculture Office (Public Organization), The Botanical Garden Organization, Phra Ruang Hot Springs (Kamphaeng Phet), Thai Human Imagery Museum, Siam Niramit Phuket, Samphran Elephant Ground & Zoo, Buffalo Village and Museum Siam.

Given the characteristic Thai sense of impunity, which has been taught to them for decades, why would they not take advantage? Everyone knows Thais are better than other people; more accomplished, more influential, smarter and better looking.

 

Except for the women near where I live, apparently.

Sorry but I imagine the poor and needy have better things to spend their money on than travel and holidays - like just surviving
