"The associations hope the government will help further relax restrictions and allow Mice operators to resume their business in the final quarter this year," said Upatham Nisitsukcharoen, chairman of the Business of Creative and Event Management Association. He led executives of the Thai Exhibition Association, Thailand Incentive and Convention Association and Thai Hotels Association to submit their request to the government. Mr Upatham said the Mice industry generated 500 billion baht in revenue in 2019 and employed 400,000 workers. The Mice industry should be allowed to reopen as well," said Mr Upatham. Mice operators have already prepared health and safety measures and are ready to resume business, he said.
