Kanchanaburi park officials remove entry ban for foreigners
A ban on foreigners visiting the Srinakarin Dam National Park in the western province of Kanchanaburi has been rescinded. Park officials say both foreigners and Thais are now welcome to enjoy the park as it re-opens to visitors.
A report in Khaosod English says the ban on foreigners was originally announced on the park’s official Facebook page two weeks ago. The post stated that the park would re-open to Thai citizens only, regardless of how long a foreigner, who might wish to visit, had lived in Thailand. The post has since been edited to remove reference to the policy.
National Parks chief Thanya Netithamkul says there is no ban on foreign visitors at any of the country’s national parks, but that everyone, foreign and Thai, must register prior to arrival and comply with Covid-19 hygiene regulations.
