Is Thailand shortening the visa exemption from 60 days to 30 days starting May 1st?

There has been no official announcement regarding the shortening of the visa exemption period from 60 days to 30 days beginning May 1st. While there were discussions about potential changes, community responses indicate skepticism about such a reduction, particularly in light of recent events affecting tourism. Many comments suggest that the Thai government may not want to discourage tourists, especially following a recent earthquake that impacted the country.
