From the Phuket Gazette:

Half a million expected for Phuket veg fest

PHUKET CITY: Half a million people are expected to attend this year’s Phuket Vegetarian Festival, bringing in around 33 million baht, a senior tourism official said....

That's 66 baht per Person. Or is my Calculation wrong? What you get for 66 Baht? Or is most of everything for free?

I posted exactly the same thing on another forum..

66 baht per person for fuel, foods, drinks, accommodations (for visitors), etc etc etc.

I guess they mean 33 billion baht.

I guess they mean 33 billion baht.

33 billion = 66,000 bt per person

I guess they mean 33 billion baht.

I would guess they just plucked any random high sounding number out of thin air without applying even the most cursory logic to examine it.

And I would put 33m infinitely closer than 33bn on a per head basis.
