In a groundbreaking move likely to thrill Indian travellers, Thailand has indefinitely extended its visa-free entry policy for Indian tourists. This decision allows visitors to enjoy up to 60 days in the country without the need for a visa. Initially slated to end on 11 November, this policy will now be a permanent fixture, making Thailand's attractive beaches, bustling cities, and rich cultural sites more accessible.

 

Implemented last year, the visa-free entry for Indians led to a surge in tourism, with a remarkable increase in Indian visitors to 16.17 million from January to mid-October. This extension eliminates the hassles of visa applications, encouraging spontaneous travel plans like weekend getaways.

 

The ripple effects of this visa policy extend beyond Thailand, influencing regional tourism. Southeast Asia has become a hot spot for tourists, with neighbouring countries like Malaysia also welcoming Indian travellers visa-free. The region has noted over 70 million tourist arrivals, enhancing its status as a prime destination.

 

Thailand is now exploring the idea of a Schengen-style visa, which could offer seamless travel across Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam. This could further boost the tourism economy, creating a unified tourist experience in Southeast Asia.

The men view every single lady as a prostitute. 

They are literally addicted to red light zones. Pattaya is now 75% Indians. Walking Street is full on Indian. 

You never see them in malls though spending. 

 

However, according to you they are spending in red light zones. Someone is making money from them.

Thailand has always been a lawless hole of a country, with lots of benifits admittedly. Seems like the benifits are becoming less and less every day lately.
