Defence Ministry spokesman Maj-General Kongcheep Tantravanich said the ministry has instructed its officials in charge of supervising all tourist attractions under its supervision to welcome tourists without charge during the New Year.
The attractions include the renowned Chulachomklao Royal Military Academy, Sattahip Naval Base and other facilities which “would ensure sound and safe visits for tourists”.
Kongcheep said the military would also back up police officers at road checkpoints countrywide to ensure safety during New Year trips.
