Boosting tourism between Laos and Thailand’s Loei
Thailand’s Designated Areas for Sustainable Tourism Administration (DASTA) is coming up with a plan to improve infrastructure and prepare routes to cash in on the growing traffic with Laos.
The move is aimed at drawing visitors, particularly adventure-seeking and high-spending tourists, from the two nations and also from third countries into the region.
Viroj Jivarangsan, governor of Loei province, said yesterday that DASTA, the tourism coordinator, was working with authorities and the private sector in the border city of Loei and Luang Prabang in Laos on plans to improve tourism infrastructure, air connectivity, and land and water travel, including a new loop of the two cities.
