Cabinet approves phase 5 of the “We Travel Together” program

The Thai cabinet approved the 5th phase of the “Rao Tiew Duay Kan” (We Travel Together) program on Tuesday, which is intended to boost domestic tourism.
Starting in February, the state will cover 40% of the accommodation charge, not exceeding 3,000 baht per night, plus a 600-baht food voucher per day. Tourism and Sports Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn said that the program will cost the taxpayer about 2.02 billion baht.
Altogether 560,000 “entitlements” will be provided to Thai citizens who subscribe to the program. Each person can receive a maximum of five “entitlements”.
Unlike the first four phases, the new phase will not cover air fares.
