Thai authorities want to open Phuket to tourists

The press of the Kingdom of Thailand reported on the development of a strategy for the so-called «travel bubble.»

Although the rate of coronavirus infection is low in Thailand: one case of infection is reported every few days, local authorities are in no hurry to open borders. Now you can get into the Kingdom for medical, educational or business purposes.

However, according to the Minister of Tourism of Thailand, Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, the issue of the opening of some regions being safe in terms of epidemiological situation will be discussed at an interdepartmental meeting on August 27. They want to present the plan in early October.

Ratchakitprakarn said that at the first stage the creation of separate beach zones near the observances is likely. In this case, without contacting the Thais, tourists will be able to spend time outside the hotels. The authorities note that this issue will certainly be agreed with the local community.
