However, at this time, the important engine for economic recovery is the export sector, but with the overall global economy in a slowdown, the export of Thai products to foreign markets is not good. There is still a continuous negative trend. Although normal conditions during the last quarter of the year there will be a lot of orders for Thai products But there are negative factors in various aspects. Therefore, Thai exports must be monitored closely after this.

But now there are rumors that coming to Thailand will have many problems and conditions. This makes Chinese tourists not want to come and travel in Thailand. In this matter, Prime Minister Settha Acknowledged the problem and hastened to find a solution to this problem. The private sector has proposed asking the government to consider the issue of free visas. Or if there is a limitation, extend the period of stay in the country longer than the current one. Directly, Prime Minister Srettha is ready to review the proposal. And he knew that he had asked Thai Airways to take him to see more flights that would be open to foreign tourists as well. In detail, it is expected that after the government has announced the policy guidelines to the House of Representatives Probably will see measures to stimulate tourism more clearly in the future.
