Patpong Abhijatapong, Deputy Governor for Marketing of TAT, told a press conference at the Royal Phuket City Hotel, “The TAT has 22 regional offices throughout the country. Each one has started building its own web site. “The TAT has its own web site [for the whole country] at https://www.tourismthailand.org which was launched just two months ago.
