Wasn't this promoted & tried about 6 months ago,  with the 50-50 scheme, which lead to wide spread corruption by Hotels,  and as far as I can remember it was a flop, and put more Thais into further debt.... 

 

 

Why would it put Thais into debt?

 

 

You would have to be fairly stupid to put YOURSELF into debt to take advantage of a discounted tourist package. I booked two stays under the scheme and the only other Thais that I saw seemed fairly well heeled.
