TAT asks for Bt600m to promote tourism during the fourth quarter of this year

Based on earlier stories I thought this 600 m slush fund was already approved.

 

Now it sounds like it has merely been proposed.

 

The initial proposal was weak.

 

New Minister of Tourism and Sports Sudawan Wang-Suphakitkosol has been given a ฿600 million budget to boost foreign tourism before the end of the current High Season as Thai-based airlines help the government to grow flight connectivity and arrival numbers.

Is it possible for 'them' to make up their minds? "Tourism is up", "Tourism is down" which is it - more to the point, who cares - beyond those filling in the numbers on what must resemble a Sudoku puzzle when it comes to government statistics

Many ex-pat pensioners have regular friends/family visits each year.  By encouraging more resident foreigners will increase this number of visitors.  Taxing their imported pensions will encourage them to leave for pastures new.

So 100 baht for each of 6 million or so expected last quarter.  But my quick perusal of the article didnt say what increase in numbers and revenue it expected for this 600 mil?  I did watch the fireworks at icon Siam a few years ago and it was a good time.
