Flights and passengers at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport have climbed by an average of 10% since the Thailand Pass, which made entering Thailand more difficult, was eliminated. Deputy Government Spokesperson Traisulee Traisaranakul released the data today and stated that it was in line with the Ministry of Tourism and Sports’ forecasts for the month of July. The government is celebrating the recent increase in air travel by hosting an event at Suvarnabhumi Airport to introduce the “Thailand Moving Together” campaign. The government hailed the easing of travel restrictions, including the requirement to apply in advance for a Thailand Pass, as opening the floodgates to an influx of foreign tourists, forecasting 3,500 times as many arrivals in 2022’s first half as in the last six months. The major airport in Bangkok, which is by far the busiest in Thailand, saw an average of 130 flights every day, carrying between 23,000 and 24,000…

This is not an original assertion from Jeffery Sachs; there have been many conspiracy theories about the origin of the coronavirus outbreak and who should take blame for the pandemic breakout. It claimed that the results of its most recent inquiry into the origins of Covid were inconclusive, partly due to the absence of data from China, which is a setback in its quest to learn how the pandemic started. However, the 67-year-old Sachs denies the WHO study and disagrees that it resulted from unavoidable events. People in China and the US have expressed it numerous times. While the World Health Organization determined the virus originated from a wet market in Wuhan, China, the US and China have each accused the other of releasing the virus from a lab. The WHO just changed its position on that, though, on June 9. A well-known American economist added fuel to the fire…
Before today’s large chemical conflagration, inspections were undertaken by the FDA, the Office of the Narcotics Control Board, the Royal Thai Police, the major city Nonthaburi police station, the Department of Medical Sciences, the Office of Police Forensic Science, and the Royal Thai Army. Cannabis users frequently assume that Thailand’s decision to legalize cannabis marks a departure from the nation’s prior policy on the drug, which would have made Thailand the only country in the region with such lax laws on cannabis product usage. Due to the concurrent emergence of hundreds of new marijuana-related businesses, especially in Bangkok and online, the authorities are in a tricky legal situation. Leaders of the BMA claim that all extra limitations will be imposed throughout Thailand, not only in one particular region. The fact that Khao San Road is a part of a broader community that includes schools and temples was also underlined. Organizations…
In comparison to life prior to the pandemic, only 30% of international flights land in The Land of Smiles, according to Governor Yuthasak Supasorn of the Tourism Authority of Thailand. The TAT and the Ministry of Tourism and Sports have been praising the quick recovery of Thai tourism, but they are now acknowledging the difficulties faced by foreign visitors, which are beyond the control of Thai officials. By the end of 2022, Thailand expects the upcoming peak season to bring in up to 10 million visitors, but fewer international aircraft are arriving due to inflation and rising fuel expenses. Travelers from China and Russia will be hard to find for the remainder of 2022 at the very least. Additionally, there are issues with flights being canceled or experiencing significant delays in both Europe and the US. At least 55 percent of foreign flights should be the target, and this may…
During today’s senate meeting at Parliament House, Sakon Satjayanit and Suradet Jirathiticharoen addressed worries about solutions to the ongoing energy problem and gasoline price increase. To reduce the quantity of air conditioning utilized in the chamber, the 62-year-old MP encouraged all senators to forgo suits. He asserted that while refinery costs changed, the price of oil stayed the same at US$110 per barrel. Thailand would have to import oil as a result, which would raise the price even more. He claimed that the government could not ask oil refineries for a discount as suggested by the former member of parliament for the Commerce Ministry because they only make 1-2 baht per liter of output. Senator and deputy prime minister for energy Supattanapong Punmeechaow has requested them to serve as role models for Thailand in terms of energy conservation. The senators might serve as role models by decreasing the temperature of…
At that point, 710 automobiles with foreign license plates were observed entering Thailand. 30,000 foreigners passed through the Nong Khai border gate between May 9 and May 31, according to the head of customs control at the Nong Khai Customs House. An official from the government claims that the Nong Khai checkpoint is the fourth-most frequented entryway into Thailand. Laotians are just one of a select few foreign ethnic groups entering Thailand significantly more frequently by land as a result of the Thailand Pass’ extinction. Thousands of Laotian tourists are visiting Thailand now that Thailand Pass is “resting in peace.” Laotians reportedly go to Thailand to shop, enjoy themselves, and save money on fuel. If more tourists arrive in Thailand this year on land, only time will tell. According to The Bangkok Post, numerous Laotian vehicles refueled at gas stations in Nong Khai before returning to Vientiane. In the northeastern…
His most recent deed was to invite Bangkok citizens to plant a million trees throughout the Thai capital. According to Chadchart, there are tree experts on staff in each of Bangkok’s 50 district offices who may advise officials on how to care for the trees. The project would accept applications from Bangkok locals starting the next week, he said. According to Chadchart, 700,000 of the trees have already been planted, but officials want more people to get involved. In order to involve more people in the initiative, the 56-year-old governor now asserts that City Hall is looking for saplings and venues to plant them. The current governor of Bangkok, Chadchart Sittipunt, has frequently voiced a desire to modernize the city. He also raised the issue of the city’s traffic as a major worry and requested a year to look into remedies. Problems like traffic and vegetation are major sources of…
among 16 options, the well-known health, life, and income insurance William Russell’s #1 pick was a well-known tourist island in southern Thailand’s Surat Thani region. The Spanish island came in second on Russell’s list, with Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, coming in third. Austin, Texas, and Sao Paulo, Brazil, were two of the top five cities. The final section of this article includes the remaining top 10. The island [Koh Phangan] is perfect for extended vacations and is well-known among Thai and foreign tourists for its Full Moon Parties. Bangkok topped a list of the best places to work last year. The prime minister, PM Prayut Chan-o-cha, also thinks that by promoting the Andaman provinces, more tourists will visit Thailand, which will lead to a resurgence of the regional economy and an increase in tax revenue. Only Buenos Aires, Argentina, is thought to have a lower cost of living than…
By dressing up as superheroes, an ice cream vendor in Phuket’s central business center makes kids grin. However, the man’s 35-year-old Witoon had a less than happy past. In the midst of the epidemic in 2020, Witoon was left jobless and in need of another source of income. Instead of giving up, he made a slight change in his line of work. As he puts it, he decided to sell ice cream “with a twist.” Witoon now dons a superhero outfit each morning before leaving for work. Whatever a spider can do, Spider-Man does. Witoon has grown accustomed to the heat despite donning his costumes in the sweltering Phuket sun because this is his daily habit. He used to perform at bars and restaurants for a living, but Covid-19 limits put an end to that. In the past, certain vendors have used this tactic in an effort to draw in…
Yesterday, a powerful storm tore the ship in half as it was cruising in the South China Sea 160 nautical miles southwest of Hong Kong. Hong Kong officials have revealed stunning video footage of a helicopter airlifting a survivor while hovering above the sinking ship when it was mostly underwater and being battered by waves, despite the fact that rescue operations had been impeded by the constantly terrible weather. Despite being battered by strong gusts and rain that prompted business closures and disrupted public transit, Hong Kong was fortunate to avoid the brunt of tropical storm Chaba. Three people have reportedly been saved, and they have reportedly told police that their other crew members were likely carried off by the strong waves prior to the arrival of rescuers. The survivors are currently being treated at a nearby hospital. After the fierce storm caused substantial damage, the crew abandoned ship, according…
