The upgrade follows strong travel momentum after the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) launched its latest campaign featuring Lalisa \u201cLisa\u201d Manobal as the official Amazing Thailand Ambassador under the \u201cFeel All the Feelings\u201d concept. The campaign highlighted Red Lotus Sea as a major seasonal destination during the peak lotus-bloom period from December to February, driving widespread interest among both Thai and international visitors.<\/p>\n<p>The growing popularity of Red Lotus Sea among Thai tourists, foreign visitors and Lisa\u2019s fan community reflects today\u2019s digital travel behavior, where visitors rely heavily on mobile connectivity to take photos and videos, share content, live stream, use map navigation apps and access services in real time. As a result, mobile data usage has continued to increase. True Corporation has therefore prioritized strengthening 5G performance in the area to support a better tourism experience, while contributing to local economic activity and sustainable tourism in Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29582\" src=\"https:\/\/trueblog.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.true.th\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/True_Lisa_3-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Strengthening 5G 2600 MHz Across Red Lotus Sea to Support Tourism<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>True Corporation reported mobility data showing that the top five nationalities of foreign visitors to the Red Lotus Sea were from China, the Netherlands, Australia, Japan and Laos.
