The Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) wants the government to further relax screening of foreign tourists by abandoning the mandatory Test & Go scheme, quarantine and RT-PCR testing to attract more visitors and restore the pandemic-ravaged tourism industry.
It plans to discuss the proposal with the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) on Friday.
“Thailand should allow foreign tourists who already received two doses of vaccines to enter the country without going through those screening measures,” said Supant Mongkolsuthree, chairman of the FTI.
