Normally held in Thailand three times a year, the “Date with Destiny – Aarambh” conference returned to Thailand this year after two years of absence in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. The event is organised by Aarambh, an India-based non-profit charity organization, with support from QNet, a world leading direct selling company.
This year, delegates arrived in Thailand in batches and joined incentive trips to Bangkok, Pattaya, and Phuket, before attending the three-day conference in Bangkok.
India is one of Thailand’s important visitor source markets. From 1 January, 2022, year-to-date, Thailand already has welcomed 743,336 Indian travellers, making India the second largest source markets to Thailand this year, after Malaysia. It is expected that Thailand will see a total of 900,000 to 1 million Indian travellers within this year.
