The cabinet has approved a new campaign called "Visit Thailand Year 2022" to promote tourism, while the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has established a committee to oversee pandemic-related obstacles for the industry.

"The Tourism Authority of Thailand will oversee the campaign to draw foreign visitors to travel in Thailand using a budget drawn from both the government and private sector. The campaign will focus on Chiang Mai, Phuket, Nakhon Ratchasima and Ayutthaya," Mr Phiphat said.

TAT governor Yuthasak Supasorn said the goal of the campaign is to hit a hotel occupancy rate of 50% in targeted provinces.

"We will focus on the Middle East and Indian markets in the coming year."

No Bangkok. No Pattaya. A lean year for gay tourism seemingly.

Bangkok  doesn't need any campaign as it's already world class destination. Pattaya has it's reputation worldwide so government probably doesn't want to make too much noise about her as not to invite nasty backlash.

While Bangkok may be but when comes to Pattaya very few people worldwide other than gay themselves is thinking of Pattaya as gay destination. Her fame is owed to straights, we just tagged along.

I don't see an any anti-gay intentions in the scheme to attract more tourists from India and the Middle East. The reverse may even factor into the decision. Gays from both locations don't have many ways to gather comfortably in their home countries and have been finding their way to Thailand in the same way way have. If the plan can attract more to Thailand it will increase diversity of tourists--gay and straight--and that can only be a good thing in the long run.
