The Thai Minister of Tourism and Sports (MOTS), along with senior executives, has held a meeting to discuss strategies for positioning Thailand as a world-class destination.

Thac Ba Lake in Yen Bai province, often called 'Halong Bay on land,' has been approved by the Prime Minister for development into an international eco-tourism and cultural hub. Spanning over 53,000 hectares, including nearly 20,000 hectares of water, the Thac Ba National Tourism Area features over 1,300 islands and ranks among Vietnam's top three largest artificial lakes.

Phuket, an island of Thailand and one of its most popular tourist attractions, expects to generate tens of billions of baht from one million foreign arrivals over the next six months.
