Bangkok –

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O'Cha decided to delay the proposed 300-baht 'land-entry' fee for international arrivals and an expected 20 million tourists to visit Thailand in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The Prime Minister gave an interview after the general Cabinet meeting this afternoon, May 3rd, that the government had inspected the increase of the export value of incoming foreign tourists which was a good sign.

Moreover, more flights were arranged and tens of thousands of tourists were coming in every day since May 1st. It is expected that domestic consumption, mainly from tourism, would improve as well, said the Prime Minister.

When asked if he was satisfied with the number, the Prime Minister said that he was and explained that if an assessment indicated that the Covid-19 situation was not worsening, then Thailand was likely to welcome about half as many tourists this year than before Covid-19, or 20 million out of 40 million.

Prayut also reaffirmed that no foreign tourist fees or land-entry fees were to be collected, for now. "The Cabinet would look at the suitability before considering the collection because the money must be used to do other things as well. We'd talk about when to collect again, but it was a no for now," he said.

Bangkok is working on plans to transition Covid-19 to endemic status coronavirus conditions have improved.

Permanent Secretary for Public Health Kiattiphum Wongrajit on Monday met Panruedee Manomaipibul, director of the city health department to discuss an endemic approach for the capital.

The country's Covid-19 situation has improved and the numbers of new cases, severe cases and fatalities have declined continuously.

Bangkok records high vaccination rates with more than 60% of local people have received their third Covid-19 vaccine shot, he said.

The capital will implement the plans to shift its Covid-19 status to endemic in a sandbox manner and will focus on management of crowded places, public transport and those with activities which are at risk of spreading disease such as pubs and bars.

Covid-19 restrictions have been gradually relaxed for smooth transition, he said.

People are instructed to follow the universal prevention measures. The authorities will also focus on vaccine coverage and maintain enough hospital beds for Covid-19 cases as well as drugs, medical supplies and vaccine doses.

Thailand reported on Tuesday 9,721 new coronavirus cases and 77 more fatalities over the past 24 hours.
