Thailand video news | Thailand opens public consultation on proposed 450-baht tourist fee, Thailand reports more than 21,000 Dengue cases and 31 deaths

Thailand is seeking public input on a proposed 450-baht tourist fee, set to remain open until September 28. The fee, collected via online payments or airport kiosks, could generate over 10 billion baht annually for tourist safety and infrastructure improvements. Meanwhile, Thailand has reported over 21,000 dengue cases and 31 deaths since January 1, with Bangkok leading in cases and fatalities.

Authorities are combating mosquito breeding grounds and encouraging residents to eliminate standing water and use repellents. In a separate incident, at least 160 people died in flash floods triggered by an avalanche in Nepal-China border region, while methamphetamine-laced e-cigarette liquid and a classroom explosion in Yala province also made headlines.
