AGGIORNAMENTO GIUGNO 2010

Mosaico Tour Operator ti informa che la situazione a Bangkok, come in tutta la Thailandia, è tornata alla normalità come affermato dal Primo Ministro thailandese Abhisit Vejjajiva e riportato dalle agenzie di stampa e pure come da comunicato emanato dall' Ente del Turismo Thailandese.

Sulla base di tutto ciò è pertanto possibile visitare la Thailandia come prima dei noti avvenimenti in totale sicurezza.



Vorremmo ringraziare l’Ente del Turismo Thailandese e il Ministero degli Esteri ( sito Viaggiare sicuri ) che hanno costantemente informato sulla reale situazione del paese e in particolare di Bangkok, così pure Thai Airways che, nonostante la notevole diminuzione di passeggeri, ha mantenuto invariata l’operatività dei voli.



STATEMENT FROM THE MINISTRY OF TOURISM AND SPORTS THE ROYAL THAI GOVERNMENT

Pursuant to the Declaration of a Severe Emergency Situation in the areas of Bangkok and some provinces in Thailand implemented by the Centre for the Resolution of the Emergency Situation (CRES) under the Emergency Decree on Public Administration in an Emergency Situation of B.E. 2548 (2005), the Ministry of Tourism and Sports wishes to announce that political unrest in Thailand has been brought completely under control and order in the capital of Bangkok and the provinces of Thailand has been restored.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has strongly reaffirmed the government’s intention to continue on the National Reconciliation Roadmap to resolve the political situation nationwide. Peace and normalcy have been restored in Thailand, making it once again a safe and pleasant destination in the region for foreign tourists. Major tourism destinations in provinces across the country are still pristine, peaceful and safe. Various measures have been implemented to bring normalcy back to the country, and to reassure foreign visitors that Thailand still remains a quality, value-for-money destination.

The Ministry of Tourism and Sports places the safety and security of international tourists above all else. Free travel insurance for foreign tourists and a waiver of tourist visa fees have been extended to 31 March 2011. The Royal Thai Government has issued insurance measures to protect foreigners visiting Thailand who are injured or unable to travel out of Thailand due to rioting. This programme is intended to boost the confidence of foreigners visiting Thailand.

The Royal Thai Government has launched an urgent recovery plan with measures that enable the tourism industry, especially small and medium enterprises, to recover their businesses as soon as possible. The Bangkok Metropolitan Authority, related government agencies and local residents have made a concerted effort to return normalcy to the Bangkok business environment.

Major tourist destinations, facilities and services are still regularly accessed by both domestic and foreign tourists. Public utility and mass transportation services are fully operational. Suvarnabhumi International Airport and other international airports have remained operational without any disruption. The Ministry of Tourism and Sports is working closely with other ministries and agencies to ensure the safety and convenience of all visitors travelling in Thailand.

With the integrated efforts of all government agencies and the full engagement of the private sectors and other related stakeholders, the Ministry of Tourism and Sports affirms that public safety and security, including peace and normalcy, flourish once more in Thailand.
