Hi Michael! Thank you for sharing the article here!

Here's a link to what I found of sustainable tourism development in Thailand. https://www.glpfilms.com/sustainable-thailand

Am I right to say that the examples which are shared on the page, are also development that has taken place due to the pandemic, more or less?  I remember we discussed in our first TOURIST training for trainers about animal tourism, including the use of elephants in the tourism industry in Thailand and how cultural background affects on the perception.

Kind regards from Finland!

Ceterum censeo mutationem climae esse vincendem.

(Incidentally, I think that global warming must be defeated)
