The campaign also announces Pattie Ungsumalynn as the presenter for the programme. Yuthasak Supasorn, Governor for Tourism Authority of Thailand, reveals that “TAT has been promoting tourism in less visited areas in Thailand. To further generate revenue and distribute income in local communities. In 2018, there were over 83.66 +4.89% visitors at less visited areas, grossing over THB 230,998.17 million +9.35%.
