Kasikorn Research Center (KResearch) predicts that the government’s domestic tourism stimulus measures should raise revenue in the tourism sector by 41 billion baht this year.



The center stated that 47.7% of respondents said that the measures influenced their vacation decisions and 60.1% planned to go on vacation within three months after business lockdown relaxation.

Due to people’s weak purchasing power, the center said, Thai people should make 89.5-91.5 million local trips, a decline of 45.2-46.4% from last year. Domestic tourism revenue should amount to 545-567 billion baht, a fall of 47.5-49.5% from the previous year.

The prediction was made on the condition that there is not a severe second spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 in the country. (TNA)
