AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Thailand Visa Shift: Thailand will tighten entry rules for tourists from 93 countries, requiring visas for stays over 30 days (previously visa-free up to 60 days for some). The change, starting 15 days after enforcement, targets foreign-national crime concerns while aiming to keep tourism benefits from being exploited. Bhutan Tourism Off-Season Push: Bhutan’s Olympic Committee says it will promote sports tourism during slower months, with 2–3 events a year to bring visitors for longer stays and support local athletes, with SDF assessed case-by-case. Road Safety Watch: In Parliament, concerns over the worsening Nganglam–Panbang highway have been formally raised with Project DANTAK, which is also tasked with routine maintenance through the works until March 2028. Housing Pressure in Thimphu: A new report highlights rent becoming a top monthly strain for families and low-income workers as demand outpaces affordable rentals. Population Alarm: Bhutan’s birth-rate collapse is again flagged as an existential economic risk, with Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay calling it unsustainable.
