BANGKOK, March 9 (TNA) - The president of the Association of Domestic Travel said tour firms welcomed the government's new tourism promotion scheme, Tour Tiaw Thai, that will offer 5,000-baht handouts for people to use tour guide services.

ADT president Thanaphol Cheewaratanaporn said that under the scheme the government would subsidize 40% of tour guide service fees, limited at 5,000 baht per tourist aged 18 and over, to stimulate domestic tourism.

Tour guide operators were pleased with the project and many of them were ready to participate and were waiting for its details, Mr Thanaphol said.

I thought that the next (second?) phase of this scheme was on hold (in Parliament) due to massive fraud and corruption?

Smells like a giant trough managed by TAT, what could go wrong?

Maybe some agreement on sharing the management fee was negotiated amongst various authorities?
