BANGKOK — Thailand has welcomed a wave of Hong Kongers as members of its long-term residency program in the wake of China’s freshly imposed national security law covering the territory.
“We have seen a surge in applicants from Hong Kong for the April-to-June quarter,” Somchai Soongswang, president of Thailand Privilege Card, told the Nikkei Asian Review in an interview. The state-owned company under the Tourism Authority of Thailand issues these “elite visas.”
