Rumfoord Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 TAT in Moscow promotes "Welcome to Thailand MEGA FAM" campaign among Russians BANGKOK, 26 October 2009 (NNT) - The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), Moscow Headquarters, Russia, promotes tourism into Thailand through the Welcome to Thailand MEGA FAM campaign. Deputy Governor for Marketing Communications of TAT Juthaporn Rerngronasa stated that the global economic slump had slowed down the Russian's economy, causing many Russian tourists to stay home in the previous 4 months. Statistics showed a decrease of 29.43% of Russian tourists to Thailand. Therefore, TAT in Moscow pushes forward the promotion of Welcome to Thailand MEGA FAM campaign in which more than 138 people including leading Russian tourist agencies and media members have dealt with the tourism agencies in Thailand to offer and make Thai products and services become well known among Russians. As a result of dealing with leading Russian tourist agencies and media members for the acknowledgment of Thai products and services among Russians, approximately 293,000 of Russian tourists are expected to travel to Thailand which also helps boost the revenue in Thai tourism by about 14,030 million baht in the 4th quarter 2009. -- NNT 26 October 2009 http://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news.php?id=255210260054 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonobo Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I have an American friend of mine who is getting married to a Russian women next year. She won't get her visa to the US until then, so to see each other in December, he asked her where she wanted to go so they could vacation together. Without even a pause to think about it, she said Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumfoord Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Pardon my ignorance. FAM? mega familiarization trip example: “I wish to assure you that there will never again be a repeat of the closure of our main gateway airports. The Cabinet has approved laws to protect our major airport from any future disruptions.” This was told by Thai Prime Minister Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva addressing the media and travel agents who were on a mega familiarization trip to Thailand recently. http://www.traveldailynews.com/pages/show_...irport-closures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
