'We Travel Together' stimulus package launchedMore than 3.5 million people have registered for the government's latest tourism stimulus campaign known as Rao Tiew Duay Kan (We Travel Together). About 200,000 applications had not been completed properly and Mr Lavaron asked those people to go through the process again. The subsidised tourist facilities must be outside the tourists' home provinces to qualify and are limited to 40% of actual expenses, with tourists paying the rest. The subsidy will be transferred into the Pao Tang application accounts by 5pm every day after registrants check into the registered hotel accommodation. When tourists travel by airline, the government will refund 40% of the ticket price, but no more than 1,000 baht per seat and the quota is limited to 2 million seats.
