The Association of Thai Travel Agents (ATTA) is calling on the Thai government to use the upcoming visit of Chinese Premier Li Qiang as a strategic opportunity to boost bilateral tourism.

According to a report by Prachachat Business, the Association of Thai Travel Agents (ATTA) has identified the upcoming official visit of Chinese Premier Li Qiang to Thailand as a significant opportunity for the tourism sector. Thanapol Cheewarattanaporn, President of ATTA, stated that the government should utilize this high-level diplomatic engagement to negotiate and facilitate increased tourist exchanges between the two nations. This initiative aims to stimulate a rise in Chinese visitor numbers to Thailand, balancing the current trend where Thai travel to China has seen a notable surge. For travelers and residents, this development is significant as it highlights a potential push for policy adjustments or promotional campaigns that could simplify travel logistics or increase connectivity between Thailand and China. While the proposal focuses on strengthening tourism ties, it remains to be confirmed what specific agreements or measures will be discussed during the Premier's visit. Stakeholders in the tourism industry are closely watching these diplomatic talks, as any resulting bilateral cooperation could influence future travel trends and market dynamics in the region.
