The subsidy scheme for domestic tourists might be reduced to 500,000 rooms from 1.5 million after the cabinet this week cut the proposed budget of 8.7 billion baht by half, according to the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT).
TAT governor Yuthasak Supasorn said the majority of the revised budget worth 4 billion baht will be allocated to tourism stimulus packages, with the TAT working directly with the private sector.
