The report is out and the number of Thailands tourists has seen an increase of 8% in the fiscal year between Sept /30 /2011 and Sept /30/2012. It is estimated that Thailand has seen 15 million tourists enter the Kingdom so far this year, with an expected 20 million by years end according to a statement made by Suwat Sidthilaw.
