Tourism revenue next year may drop by 50 billion baht as growth target missed
13 Sept 14:26 Key points summarised by AI
- Thailand anticipates a 50 billion baht decline in next year's tourism revenue, missing its 11.5% growth target for arrivals, largely due to a significant drop in Chinese tourists.
- The downturn is attributed to recent negative incidents, including a fatal boat accident and an airport assault involving Chinese visitors, prompting the government to consider visa-on-arrival fee waivers to boost tourism.
