CCSA offers ways to help Rayong after Covid-19 scare halts tourism

By The Nation

 

 

Since Rayong’s tourism sector has come to a near standstill after a visiting Egyptian soldier tested positive for Covid-19, the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) met on Friday (July 17) to come up with measures to help revive the province’s economy.

 

The plans include:

 

1. Government agencies holding seminars and meetings in Rayong to help stimulate the hotel industry;

 

2. Tourism promotion for government agents and private companies;

 

3. Sports competitions, with control measures in place;

 

4. Concerts and performances under the new normal;

 

5. Getting foreign and local film crew to film in the province.

 

These measures will be discussed further before being announced by Monday.

Even more reasons to give Rayong a very wide berth.
