Thailand tourism: 10 provinces elevated to first tier attractions

[webfact]

 

Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has handpicked 10 second-tier provinces to be promoted as first-tier tourist hotspots on December 26.

This strategic initiative, concocted in collaboration with the Thai Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade of Thailand, is set to revolutionise the tourism landscape.

 

The chosen provinces, brimming with untapped potential, include Phrae, Lampang, Nakhon Sawan, Nakhon Phanom, Sisaket, Chanthaburi, Ratchaburi, Kanchanaburi, Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Trang. A meeting between top brass from TAT highlighted the exceptional prospects these hidden gems possess, earmarking them for an imminent upgrade to first-tier status.

While acknowledging that certain provinces, like Kanchanaburi, may already boast first-tier allure in the tourism arena, the plan is to propel them further into the economic stratosphere, creating a win-win scenario for both tourists and the provinces themselves, reported The Nation.

Allure?? 😂

Concocted - would be about right??

Brimming?? 😂

Please enlighten us what first rate tourist attractions there are in these bland, 'same same but different' concrete post WW2 built cities devoid of architectural or artistic culture, barring a few Buddha statues and temples???

Perhaps those in high places can tell us exactly how they will go about transforming second-tier provinces into first-tier provinces.
