Thailand, I'nesia, M'sia in tourism pact

CHA-AM: -- Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand will launch a joint tourism package to bring quick money into crisis-hit economies, a Thai minister said yesterday.

The Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle (IMT-GT) yesterday declared an "IMT-GT Celebration Year" for the package.

It was inspired by the success of 2008's "Visit IMT-GT Year". The three countries will jointly promote tourism, said PM's Office Minister Virachai Virameteekul.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva discussed the plan with Indonesian President Susilo Yudhoyono and Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi at an IMT-GT summit.

One idea is a joint promotion of medical tourism, Virachai told reporters, without detailing the plan.

Set up in 1993, the IMT-GT aims to strengthen sub-regional cooperation and economic growth.

It has a five-year road map covering infrastructure, halal food, trade and tourism running till 2011.

Abhisit suggested exploring synergy among individual development plans to attract investors.

Thailand could connect its Southern Seaboard Development Plan with Malaysia's northern and eastern corridor economic regions, Virachai said.

The IMT-GT scheme covers 10 Indonesian provinces, eight Malaysian states and 14 southern Thai provinces.

Thailand hopes the scheme will also benefit the predominantly Muslim deep South, where ongoing violence has killed more than 3,200 people since 2004.

The Governors' and Chief Ministers' Forum will play a key role in promoting trade, investment and tourism, Virachai said.

The three leaders urged the forum to improve mechanisms to ensure growth of local private sectors, he said.

Only if Thailand and Indonesia would be able to adopt the same visa policy than Malaysia, this could work.

Just another pipe dream lol

They already have the 'Miracle drink ', in Thailand , no 'half baked ' plan there either , Thai burn the sh__t out of most food and destroy many attribuites in the proccess , change of attitude would do far more to encourage the return of tourists , less confrontation and more genuine smiles as they used to be . You know , I was partialy encouraged to visit Thailand whilst plowing through comments on TV , now , many have become a sarcastic bunch of degenerates , one cannot (Is not allowed) to post an honest opinion without it being cried down by the wanabee/Thainess establishment , what happened to the nice informative posters that used to inhabit this forum ?
