Popular Post snoop1130 Posted Monday at 07:59 AM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 07:59 AM Scott Schaeffer, the executive of HBO’s series "The White Lotus," has praised Thailand as an ideal location for film production. This comes in the light of the recent choice of Koh Samui as the venue for producing the show's third season. Schaeffer was full of compliments for the local team's professionalism and recognized the support provided by the Ministry of Tourism & Sports, other relevant agencies, and the locals in making the production possible. During a meeting with the Tourism and Sports Minister Sermsak Pongpanich, Schaeffer spoke highly of the stunning landscapes and natural beauty of Koh Samui, Phuket and other Thai islands, calling them some of the globe's top film locations. He also noted that government incentives were a compelling reason for HBO and Warner Bros.' decision to opt for Thailand, even stating these incentives were among the greatest in Asia. Minister Sermsak anticipates that the series will help improve Thailand's global image and lure tourists to the film shoot locations. He predicts that by 2024, foreign film production could rake in revenue exceeding 7.5 billion baht. He further noted that tourism; resulting from the production of world-class films, continues to boost the Thai economy.

Try reading the first paragraph. The article is not about the film. It is about how lovely Thailand and Koh Samui are and how great the people were that were looking after them. 22 hours ago, snoop1130 said: Scott Schaeffer, the executive of HBO’s series "The White Lotus," has praised Thailand as an ideal location for film production.
