Does scuba diving count as a soft power for the DTV application in Thailand?
does scuba diving count as a soft power on dtv application say divemaster or open water scuba instruction training ?
Summary so far
The consensus in the comments suggests that scuba diving does not qualify as a soft power for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) application in Thailand, as soft power is more closely associated with traditional Thai cultural activities. Additionally, it was noted that pursuing a dive course can lead to obtaining a Non Immigrant ED visa; however, that does not imply scuba diving is recognized as a soft power.

You can get the Non Immigrant ED visa based on following a dive course.
Ask your dive center to contact the TDA/CMAS dive organisation for details

Soft power directly relates to some Thai traditional or cultural activity.
