Thailand targets 3 million foreign tourists this year under phased reopening

[DLock]

The incoming tourists have been vaccinated, tested before flying and then tested after 5 days - he is safer than any person in Thailand. The risk is all on the tourist.

 

Thailand should be giving garlands and thanks to every tourist they can get.

 

They don't deserve any tourists.

Interesting calculation.  40M in 2019 spent 1.9 Trillion = B 47,500 per person
20M predicted in 2022 will spend 1.3 Trillion = B 65,000 per person.

Prices are down from 2019 and will take a while to recover.  So, are they expecting tourists to take extra long vacations?

Spending more on all the fines, eg no mask 3 times, 20k baht. That has now been upgraded to legitimate tourist spending and income.

What's the question? You want to be a tourist also? Not sure how this relates

OK, let me explain the obvious to you. Here is the title of the story: "Thailand targets 3 million foreign tourists this year under phased reopening"

 

 My question is why are they just only targeting the foreign tourists and not the foreign resident's also? Comprende Half Full???
