Ms. Thapanee Kiatphaibool, TAT Governor, said “The initiative complements the policy outlined by the Minister of Tourism and Sports, Mr. Sermsak Pongpanit, to position Thailand as a Tourism Hub in line with the government’s “Ignite Thailand’s Tourism” vision. It also reflects our PASS strategy, namely Partnership 360, Accelerate Access to Digital World, Subculture Movement, and Sustainably Now, and our ‘Marketing 6.0’ approach. The project is envisioned to stimulate 15,000 trips in the second half of this year, generating both direct and indirect tourism revenue to the Thai economy.”
