Tourism Authority of Thailand Governor Yuthasak Supasorn stated that the launch of the Michelin Guide Thailand has contributed significantly to TAT’s mission to attract foreign tourists. He emphasized that food is one of Thailand’s "5F" soft powers, including film, festivals, fashion, and fighting (Muay Thai).

 

Surat Thani Vice Governor Chusak Rooying also highlighted that the province is also famous for producing rambutan, coconut juice, turmeric, and blue swimming crabs. He also mentioned that there are many tourist attractions on both the mainland and the islands, such as Ratchaprapa Dam, Khao Sok National Park, Wat Phra Borommathat Chaiya, and Phum Riang Village.
