Registration for the "Thais Help Thais Plus 60/40" scheme opens today from 6am for both merchants and ordinary citizens, with the government subsidising up to 60% of purchases in an effort to stimulate the grassroots economy nationwide.
Speaking on Sunday, deputy government spokeswoman Lalida Pherdwiwatthana said the government had established clear registration procedures for shops, small businesses and public transport operators to ensure participation is convenient, transparent and verifiable.
