The great Thailand opened today and a whopping 3000 people turned up including returnee's.

That is a long way from a million at that rate.

First quarter doesn't start for two more months.

Poor chap! Can’t afford to feed bhaji to us and wants to feel superior. I feel sorry for the Thai family he’s adopted. They must be starving to death

That’s true @Poolie . Plenty of time for that number to decline. Well spotted, but try to stay positive for the Government.

Where did you get the figure of 3,000 arrivals? Was that a total figure or arrivals in to Bangkok only? 
 

Thanks

i posted a while ago that on a Monday morning after the weekend, a member of TAT or someone in the Governors office has to produce some numbers they don't have to be accurate just a number to give out so someone will come out with a number say 200k he will then pass this on and higher up the chain it will be altered to make the figure look good. There are no official numbers or solid booking's to even get close to an official announcement of numbers, in other words projected or what someone thinks.
