The Thai government needs to speed up work to establish a single visa among Asean members and the 10-country group's six dialogue partners to enhance tourism within Asia, according to former tourism minister Weerasak Kowsurat.
"The presence of single visa in Asean that covers 10 countries plus six partners - China, South Korea, Japan, India, Australia and New Zealand - would be a big boon to intra-Asian tourism," said Mr Weerasak, who is now the director of the International Institute for Trade and Development (ITD).
