(Bangkok Post file photo)The Finance Ministry is poised to propose a fourth phase of the Taste-Shop-Spend scheme to the cabinet by March as a means to stimulate domestic travel during Songkran. Supporting domestic tourism and consumption is the main focus of the scheme's fourth phase amid the coronavirus epidemic, said a source familiar with the matter who requested anonymity. But it remains too early to estimate a budget for the fourth phase, the source said. The rebate rose to 20% for more than 30,000 to 50,000 baht spent, with up to 8,500 baht available in cash back.
