The Minister of Tourism and Sports, H.E.

He also mentioned that the tournaments are being organised in line with the Royal Thai Government's 'Stay Play Safe' policy under a collaboration between the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, Ministry of Public Health, and other tourism-related public and private organisations to build confidence in Thailand's public health measures against COVID-19, while strengthening the economy with stimulus packages.

To promote tourism destinations and activities to the expat community in the Kingdom, TAT has been showcasing a variety of events through a series of experiential trips and tourism promotions. These have included: a trip to Khung Bang Kachao, the "Lung of Bangkok" on 29 August, 2020; the Expat Fair 2020 (Expat Travel Deal 2020) at the EmQuartier shopping mall in Bangkok on 11-13 September, 2020; a trip to Chiang Khan, Loei province on 10-11 October, 2020; the Ratchaburi canal tour on 28 November, 2020, and the Minister Cup 2021 at the Alpine Golf Club in Pathum Thani province on 4 April, 2021, to name but a few.
