Fiscal policy adviser Wuttipong Jittungsakul said a greater number of foreign tourists visited Thailand following the country's reopening. The number of international tourist arrivals stood at 1.12 million in July, skyrocketing 6,126% year-on-year.

Most of them were from Malaysia, India, Vietnam and South Korea, he said at the FPO's press briefing on the economic situation in July.
