Golf travel agents who participated on the golf trip expressed their great satisfaction with and impression about golf in Thailand. The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) indicated that the success of the golf FAM would help to lift the profile of Bangkok and Hua Hin as year round destinations for Australian golfers.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand indicated that the success of the golf FAM would help to lift the profile of Bangkok and Hua Hin as year round destinations for Australian golfers. 

Commenting on the trip, Anin Gujral, TAT Australia Marketing Officer, highlighted the importance of the golf FAM saying, &quot;This is one of the major components of the Australia promotional campaign for Thailand. The golf FAM allowed the Australian agents to experience the world-class golf of Bangkok and Hua Hin, as well as the tourism, hotel, and resort facilities in both Thai cities. Our intention in scheduling this particular trip on the heels of the Thailand Travel Mart, a travel exhibition for the industry, was to leverage the excellent exposure received there, as well as welcoming new potential partnerships. The agent&#039;s positive feedback will help to promote Thailand golf tourism in Australia and further increase the fame of Thailand throughout the region.&quot;

Mr. Gujral went on to say, &quot;Organizing such trips contributes to the support of Thailand golf tourism on a massive scale. These FAM&#039;s are one of the best ways to communicate with travel decision makers.
