Popular Post webfact Posted January 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2021 TAT advocates "Sexy tours" for "quality tourists" to boost Thailand's recovery The head of the Tourism Authority of Thailand has proposed what he called "sexy" tourism to spur Thailand's recovery from the pandemic. He was definitely not referring to an image of the country from yesteryear but a brave new way forward to attract "quality tourists". Governor Yutthasak Suphasorn's vision is to inspire confidence among Thais in domestic tourism as a number one priority. He accepted that post pandemic the numbers may be down but he'll be targeting the high spenders. So the spending will actually be UP! For this group safety and the environment really rocks their boat, he told Channel 7. "They want sexy tourism,' he enthused. Yes, high value tourism was the way to recover past glories after the Covid-19 pandemic recedes, he suggested.

I am sure those "high spenders" are going to feel very sexy when they travel through thick smoke from miles and miles of burning fields, just seconds before their luxury van driver falls asleep behind the steering wheel, plowing the vehicle into a pickup truck full of Burmese agricultural workers. You've got a lot of work to do to fix those environmental and safety issues ahead of your "sexy tours". Mr. Yuthasak. And better hurry up. Droves of foreign high spenders are waiting impatiently to come to Thailand because they really have grown bored of places such as the French Riviera, Bora-Bora, the Maldives, and the Bahamas. 24 4 36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted January 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2021 I have enjoyed quite a few "sexy tours" during my first decade of living in the kingdom... although admittedly my definition was considerably different from that of Mr. Yuthasak. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you put people who can't speak the international language of travel and tourism fluently in charge of tourism to Thailand, good move. That won't cause any confusion at all. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think he was using the word sexy in the same way as Ruud Gullit famously said he wanted to see sexy football. I don't think he meant the players wearing G strings, high heels and doing the Pattaya shuffle. Gullit had some great quotes.???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
