IS WORKING REMOTELY IN THAILAND IN 2022 A GOOD IDEA?
‘Ever since coronavirus started, it has changed the way we work by a great deal. Companies no longer bound their employees to the office and many of them allow remote working as an option. With vaccinated travel lanes (VTL) opening up to other countries, many more people might consider going overseas for workation. A key question among many people is: will this trend continue or will only be temporary? From a McKinsey research report, remote working will likely continue even after the pandemic.
Most people globally have been working away from the office for around 1.5 years. Some are working from their home, and some even choose to work remotely away from the country of their employment.
According to a recent news published by CNBC, Bangkok was ranked as world #1 destination for Workation.’
