One of the aims of this yearโ€™s TTM+ is to showcase theย huge potential of the Mekong Subregionย and the CLMVT nations to work together and to boost income from tourism that benefits the region as a whole. International speakers have come to share their ideas and knowledge through workshops and forums and have addressed topics such as security, community based tourism and the role of information technology in tourism.

With the event now ending, many of the travel trade showโ€™s buyers and members of the media will enjoy a range of post event tours of northern Thailand, These will showcase the rich Lanna heritage of the region as well as the many scenic wonders and Uniquely Local Thai Experiences that tourists come to Chiang Mai to enjoy.
