Tourism operators urged to focus on spending

Quick Summary:

The Natural Resources and Environment Ministry has urged the tourism industry to focus on spending per person instead of total arrivals to help preserve the environment, recommending policies such as capacity limits at tourist attractions.

Mr Varawut said the ministry is willing to help hotels and the private sector acquire environmental or sustainable funding from overseas organisations.

Other moves include using an online booking platform to buy an entrance ticket, banning single-use plastics in areas, and developing safe and inclusive infrastructure for tourists.
