Pichai' reveals 'Prime Minister Paethongtarn' stands out on the ASEAN meeting stage, wearing Thai fabric, being admired, queuing to take pictures, expecting trade and investment cooperation to increase. Mr. Pichai Naripthaphan, Minister of Commerce, said after the completion of the 44th and 45th ASEAN Summits and related meetings between 9-11 October 2024 in the Lao People's Democratic Republic that this ASEAN meeting is considered another success for Thailand on the world stage after the ACD summit in Qatar. In addition to participating in the outstanding meeting, Prime Minister Ms. Paetongtarn Shinawatra also demonstrated Thailand's outstanding and beautiful Soft Power by wearing beautiful Thai fabrics that caught the eye of the international media, causing her to be widely talked about. She also received praise from the media and the Lao people who welcomed her very well. This can be seen from the fact that she followed the Thai female prime minister every day when she came to the meeting place. Sometime s, while waiting for the meeting, there was a queue to take pictures. The Prime Minister gave everyone the opportunity to take pictures together in a friendly manner. For the ASEAN meetings, the Prime Minister participated in more than 20 meetings, starting from the opening ceremony of the 44th and 45th ASEAN Summits, where the Prime Minister delivered a statement to the meeting, which clearly showed the vision of the leaders and the direction of Thailand's policies in increasing economic opportunities among each other in various dimensions, and the ASEAN-China, ASEAN-Korea, ASEAN-Japan, and ASEAN+3 (China, Japan, South Korea) meetings. The Prime Minister's statements made each meeting emphasize cooperation in solving various problems, especially problems affecting the economy, which were given great importance. After the 3 major meetings, many countries requested to meet for bilateral discussions, such as Japan, Singapore, Cambodia, Brunei Darussalam, Vietnam, Malaysia, Canada, South Korea, etc., resulting in bilateral meetings of as many as 12 countries. 'Thailand is really popular for trade and investment because many countries have come to the meeting. Many countries are ready to invest in Thailand and expand trade opportunities together. This is good news for Thailand that comes from the hard work of Team Thailand, the Thai delegation led by Prime Minister Paethongtarn, who has given great importance to trade and investment negotiations on the world stage. After returning from Qatar, we heard good news that a Middle Eastern investment group announced a plan to invest more than 32 billion baht in a data center in Thailand and there will be more to come. Therefore, after returning from this ASEAN meeting, I think there will be more good news for Thai people to hear,' said Mr. Pichai. Mr. Pichai also said that yesterday (October 11), he accepted the invitation of Mr. Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia, to have breakfast together. Australia announced the Southeast Asian Economic Strategy to 2040 in September 2023, which will help strengthen relations and stimulate investment in line with the policies of the Thai government in many areas, such as agriculture and food, food security, using Thailand as a data center location, green energy transition, including electric vehicles, battery production, and BCG businesses, as well as education and the development of various labor skills, such as tourism, hotel services, information technology, construction, food production, and the digital economy, including Soft Power, which is an opportunity for trade and investment for Australian businessmen to invest in Thailand, including joint investment in various potential areas. Australia itself is interested in investing in Thailand. It is expected that trade between Thailand and Australia will progress further. Source: Thai News Agency
