Thailand's temporary exemption on form TM.6 can boost tourism in Perlis, says state exco member

KANGAR: The Thai government's decision to temporarily exempt foreigners from submitting Form TM.6 when entering and exiting the country can indirectly benefit the tourism sector in Perlis, according to a state executive councillor.

Izizam Ibrahim, who is in charge of border relations and cooperation, said this measure would reduce congestion at Thailand’s immigration checkpoints, thereby facilitating the movement of foreign tourists from Thailand to Malaysia through the Perlis border.
