Phang Nga community offers first-hand experience of a simple life

By The Nation

 

 

With Thailand’s top destinations left virtually empty due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many places like Ban Sam Chong Nuea in Phang Nga’s Takua Thung district are devising new ways to attract local travellers.

 

Now tourists can take a longtail boat around Phang Nga Bay and enjoy not just the area’s scenic beauty but also get a close-up view of the simple lives led by the Thai-Muslim population.

 

"Homestays are available for those who want to stay overnight, and people can feast on seafood sold at affordable prices. There is also a variety of goods people can take back as souvenirs, such as tie-dye cloth and processed seafood,” the community leader said.

 

It is expected that Thailand’s tourism industry will take at least a year to recover in the fallout of the Covid-19 outbreak.

Well done, it can be achieved with some thought, give Thais what they want, homestay type accommodation, local affordable food and sensible souvenirs to take home.

You get my thumbs up.????
