BANGKOK (The Nation Thailand/ANN): A Thai government committee plans to hold Songkran Festival celebrations during the entire month of April 2024, instead of the traditional three days, in a bid to entrench Thailand’s standing among the top 10 global destinations for festivals.

Songkran, the Thai traditional new year, falls on April 13, which is also National Elderly Day.
