#FIRST OPINION
“In 2022, Thailand welcomed one million Indian visitors. This year, we’ve already seen 960,000 visitors and anticipate exceeding 1.5 million by year-end. This number would approach nearly 80% of our 2019 statistics, which is highly promising. For 2024, we aim to surpass two million Indian tourists. Moving forward, our emphasis will be on sustainability, particularly in hosting eco-friendly Indian weddings that minimize waste.”
