BANGKOK, 8 March 2012 – The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is set to build confidence among tourists and tourism operators with a promotional campaign to draw more tourists back to the capital.
BMA deputy governor Thaya Theepsuwan has officially opened the BMA’s booth at the world’s leading travel trade show, ITB Berlin, in Germany. The BMA is promoting tourism under the theme of Bangkok Smile, while also establishing confidence in Bangkok’s safety situation and the BMA’s willingness to cooperate with the government in resolving the flood problem.
