Will the government’s domestic travel measures persuade travelers to pack their bags?
While the other economic engines are losing steam, the government hopes to use the tourism sector to boost the country’s economic growth.
Recently, the government announced additional measures to promote hospitality business which is the top-earning service sector. The measures include the “Visit Thailand with Bt100” and “Shocking Price Weekday Travel”.
The government hopes that, together with the Bt1,000 cash handout program, these measures will encourage people to spend and travel in the final quarter of the year.
