Lacessit Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I'm wondering if it is part of the job description at TAT to issue optimistic forecasts. Put out anything downbeat, and you'll be posted to Mae Hong Son to organise the tuk-tuk drivers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollyog Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Out of curiosity I calculated the figures, and it's only an estimated 12,000 Baht per person so over 4 days, not a lot really. Actually sounds feasible - IF they really get 54,198 visitors!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uroller Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I think the private jets will be lined up at the airport full of wealthy big spending tourists from Mars who are immune to Covid, immune to BS, immune to lies and ready to share their wealth with Thailand???????????????????????????????????????????????? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketcouple Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Honestly, I am disgusted by such considerations of 'Baht revenue/profit per visitor'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony125 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Maybe familes returning to lay on dirty beaches but regular young peoplelike a little nite life drinking/dancing partying with Thai girls , Full moon Parties on Samui not having bars that are open closing at 11 PM. Too boring here now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Connda may actually have two or three Thai 'panther-<deleted>' brews to celebrate - "Whoopee." And with the unseasonable coolness and rain up here in the North, I have a flower patch along the soi leading to the backyard driveway to weed and replant as well as working some ox-poop into the vegetable garden as I hope for an early Rain Season. Of course - Maskless - as we are both quite happy leading a hermit lifestyle sans the normal celebration and visitors. we the same relax and not much on the street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RafPinto Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Another "fake news" from TAT Someone should prosecute them. That's what they would do when a simple citizen invents something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safer in the Lobby Rich people don't like Dirty streets, nasty Dogs, scam artist. Land of Scams! Rich people will be escorted from their private jets, by-pass the regulations for the commoners, and go directly to a penthouse suite, shopping, and elbow-rubbing sans masks and social distancing with other "Clean" elites. Well, the elites will be mask-free. The servants will wear face-diapers to show their proper place in society - at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
