PHUKET: Tourism in the southern island province has returned to its pre-Covid level by revenue, while the number of visitors remains lower than before the pandemic due partly to fewer returning Chinese tourists, according to local authorities.
Phuket deputy governor Danai Sunantharod said last year 5.6 million people visited Phuket, including 3.3 million foreigners. The number of visitors by province was second only to Bangkok.
