The governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand told Channel 7 that the group of Chinese tourists that arrived from Shanghai and are now visiting the seaside after passing through a 14 day quarantine would be spending between 300,000 and 400,000 baht each.
They will be here for a month in total.
Yuthasak Suphasorn said there were 39 of them.
This was roughly the originally reported number and different to other reports that suggested there were 33, notes Thaivisa.
The tourists were the first group on the STV (special tourist visa) and arrived in Bangkok where they underwent the two week quarantine at a luxury hotel. It was unclear whether the cost of their quarantine was part of the governor's assessment of their spending power.
Yuthasak said it was just a matter of a few days before the next group of more than 100 tourists from Gwangzhou are released from quarantine.
He said that people need not worry about them - they are Covid free and like Thai returnees have gone through all the necessary measures.
