A pathetic and somewhat offensive attempt a stereotyping. Its very fortunate for narrowminded and ignorant people like you that its still open season on cannabis users. as the normal victims of this sort of behaviour are now protected Considering your obvious lack of first hand knowledge regarding cannabis or users thereof, I worry that you have developed an irrational phobia, Have you ever considered seeking professional help? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 At 35 baht a head, some insurance companies are rubbing their hands together; I'm sure. That other 265 baht per head is ...? Oh, sure, it is with the 800 baht exit fee people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malthebluff Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Every week theres something new on how they going to get more tourist or how they going to promote Thailand to make tourist come but nothing ever changes with the hard to get Visa and paperwork the corruption the duel pricing and talk of hotel duel pricing the crimes and scams against tourist and now the 300 baht soon to be entrance fee WAKE UP THAILAND, a normal family wouldnt come here with better cheaper and less hassle countries to go on holiday to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Loh Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Scratching my head why many here become overly upset and emotional over a "target". Every organisation has a target; that's prerequisite for planning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time Traveller Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Finally some good news. And with the world only having around 56 million total millionaires, and 30 million of those "quality" people visiting Thailand all in the same year!. Maybe they should increase the entrance fee for those quality tourists from 300 to 300,000 baht? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandeventer Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 14 hours ago, Richard 2020 said: 30 million "quality tourists"...I do wonder what is being smoked there? Is this already the consequence of the cannabis release? There should be no more "mass tourism"! Only the "ELITE" should come and spend as much money as possible, so was the plan, right? Try offering gold bars to come and they might get 30 million??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post IamNoone88 Posted July 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) Them be fancy market strategy buzzwords. Reality, Russians won't be coming because they can't. Neither will the Chinese because they pretty much can't. A whole bunch of other people will holiday at home as inflation gets the better of them and any disposable income they had left. Add in a dash of travel chaos ... additional travel taxes and a society that want to claw back previous losses by raising prices.

sambum Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is aiming to revitalize the nation’s tourism industry with new strategies and campaigns, targeting 30 million tourists and 2.38 trillion baht in revenue by 2023. "TAT hopes for............", "TAT hopes to attract.............", "TAT aims for........." Just enter as many millions as you want in place of the "........'s"! TAT - Blah, blah, blah - does anybody really take any notice of these fabricated figures? Apart from TAT themselves, of course? Or maybe Mr Prayut to convince himself that everything is back on track for a wonderful return to the halcyon "pre pre" Covid years, but without those pesky backpackers to spoil the image of "More Amazing Thailand"?

Cake Monster Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 16 hours ago, snoop1130 said: However, the weaker baht is likely to boost tourist spending power and encourage foreign tourists to visit Thailand. However, with ever increasing Air Fares, and a destination rampant with Inflation, ( as are many ) I doubt if there will be 30 M Tourists by end of 2023. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing, isn't it? Instead of creating some year-long marketing programs and then sticking with them until completion, as well as fighting to end recognized problems, TAT just vomits out endless projections of incredible numbers without really working towards anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RafPinto Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Based on TAT's forecast, Thai Airways just ordered another 999 aircrafts and hired 600 pilots and 22000 stewards. Up to now, 65322 people have applied for the 40,000.000 investment in order to buy a 1 rai of land. Things are looking great. joking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
