Popular Post spidermike007 Posted November 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2020 And that rather pathetic number shows the extreme lack of interest in the program. Until Thailand can figure out a program that does NOT require quarantine, Thailand will flounder, and miss out on the trillions of baht a year it brought in, and the millions of people the industry employed. The longer they remain shut down, the deeper the forgetfulness of Thailand will be. The longer they remain closed, the fewer will return, once they re-open. I predict no more than 5 million arrivals, five years from now. Maybe 15 million, by 2030. Maybe. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plima Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 7 hours ago, webfact said: Special Tourist Visa: 681 foreign tourists to visit Thailand in November An upbeat governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand has said that 681 tourists will be visiting Thailand in November under the much heralded (though much criticised) Special Tourist Visa (STV) program. Yutthasak Suphasorn said that 263 tourists had completed the 14 day quarantine requirement, 134 were currently in quarantine and 284 would arrive before the end of November. The governor said that the TAT, THAi airways and hotels associations had been working on what he called the "Amazing Thailand Plus Special Package". This was an all in one place service to make it easy for the tourists to get their air tickets, apply for their visa, find out about where to quarantine and book trips around the country once they are released. The TAT data announced yesterday was correct as of 17th November. Thailand would normally be welcoming around 3 million tourists in November but the pandemic has ended that. Nation TV went with the upbeat message with a caption on their opening picture saying that Thailand was opening up to tourism. This was accompanied by a picture of the bankrupt THAI airline. Other file pictures showed a westerner on the beach, one jumping for joy and smiling foreigners taking selfies at a temple. There was also one beach snap of the rear end of a horse.

Sean60 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Let me understand this. Normalt we have 3000000 tourist in Thailand during November. November is considered to be a dead month. How dose this package will help us? Who will benefit from this package? (The Thai government, Thai airways, expensive hotels). This means that existing ministers will be staling even more money. We the working people will receive nothing. 9 months in to the lockdown and there has not been any relief package for small business owners. So the dirty no showering monkey the health minister and his mates will richer as I the hard working person has soon nothing left. Guess what! your turn will come up soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
