\t<\/span>Mrs. Nichapa Yoswee, Senior Vice President of Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (Public Organization) or TCEB<\/b>, stated that the \u201cYok Team Prachum, Rum Rak Mueang Thai Season 2\u201d campaign aligns with TCEB’s 3S strategy for 2025: Stay Longer \u2013 Spend More \u2013 See You Again. The goal is to enhance the country’s economic potential through the MICE industry.<\/p>\n \t<\/span>\u201cTCEB recognises that promoting the strong growth of the domestic MICE market is a crucial foundation for supporting the overall development of the national MICE industry and a vital mechanism for driving the economy. Over the past decades, TCEB has consistently pursued a policy focused on developing the domestic MICE market to distribute opportunities and income to regions and communities nationwide. As of the end of March, the domestic MICE market generated over 12.6 million travellers and a total revenue of over 42 billion baht, representing 15.94% growth compared to the same period last year.\u201d<\/p>\n \t<\/span>Therefore, TCEB has joined forces with 16 partner organisations to launch the \u201cYok Team Prachum, Rum Rak Mueang Thai Season 2\u201d campaign under the theme \u201cInviting Office Teams to Go Off-Site Across Thailand\u201d to reiterate and stimulate awareness of the power of the domestic MICE market. This builds upon the success of the 2024 campaign, which generated over 130 million baht in economic impact and attracted 14,971 participants. The Season 2 or 2025 edition of the campaign is designed to encourage organisations to creatively plan their corporate activities under 6 activity formats and 3 core concepts to maximise benefits for both participants and destination communities. The three core concepts include meetings to promote the community, meetings to promote health, and meetings to promote sustainability. This campaign also encourages activities during the low travel season.<\/p>\n \t<\/span>The \u201cYok Team Prachum, Rum Rak Mueang Thai Season 2\u201d campaign takes the form of a social media review contest of corporate activities. The primary objectives are to promote the organisation of meetings, seminars, corporate events, and incentive travel across all regions of Thailand, stimulate income distribution to communities, and drive the sustainable growth of the domestic MICE industry. Both organisations hosting corporate activities and MICE operators can participate in the campaign.<\/p>\n \t<\/span>For organisations hosting corporate activities<\/b>, they are required to organise an event outside their own province location, whether it’s a meeting, incentive trip, seminar, training, CSR activity, or team-building event, lasting at least 2 days and 1 night with at least 20 participants. Then, they must review the activity and post it on social media to be eligible to win cash prizes and other rewards every two months, totaling 1,000,000 baht of value. The prizes for the winners include the \u201cUltimate Meeting Team\u201d<\/b> award for the review post that best demonstrates a creative and inspiring corporate event, and the \u201cTop Engagement Team\u201d <\/b>award for the post with the highest engagement.<\/p>\n \t<\/span>For MICE operators and various corporate event service providers, they can submit their service details to win a cash prize of 20,000 baht and an honorary plaque. The awards are divided into two categories: the \u201cHighest Number of Participants\u201d<\/b> award for the top 3 MICE operators with the highest total number of event participants, and the \u201cHighest Number of Corporate Clients\u201d<\/b> award for the top 3 MICE operators with the highest total number of corporate clients served.<\/p>\n \t<\/span>Mr. Siripakorn Cheawsamoot, Director-General of Designated Areas for Sustainable Tourism Administration (Public Organization) or DASTA<\/b>, stated: \u201cDASTA, an agency under the supervision of the Minister of Tourism and Sports (Mr. Sorawong Thienthong), has a mission to manage and develop areas for sustainable tourism in an integrated manner.
