Taiwan offers to pay tourists to enjoy their vacation
Taiwan is trying to woo more travellers to visit the nation by announcing special offers which include giving tourists USD 165 each to vacation in the country.
Cash rewards will also be offered to tour groups to encourage them to visit the island, reports CNN.
Taiwan’s Premier Chen Chien-jen announced Thursday that the government aims to attract six million tourists in 2023, doubling that figure in 2024 and aiming for 10 million visitors by 2025.
As a sweetener, they’ll give handouts of NT$5,000 ($165) to 500,000 individual tourists. Allowances of up to NT$20,000 ($658) will also be provided to 90,000 tour groups, reports CNN.
