Thailand wins tourism award
Thailand has been voted the world's "Best Tourist Country 2008" for the second consecutive year in an annual tourism award ceremony in Copenhagen, a senior official said yesterday.
Stockholm director of the Tourism Authority of Thailand Manit Boonchim reported that Thailand had won the award at the ceremony on October 9 held by the Danish travel magazine Stand By at the Hilton Copenhagen Airport Hotel. It was the 13th time that the annual event had been held.
The ranking was based on votes from 8,000 tourists and business operators in Denmark, he said, and Thailand bested over 40 other countries to win the award.
