News : Asia-Europe Meeting, Thailand to focus on trade barriers at Asem in Italy
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha left for Milan, Italy to attend Asia-Europe Meeting (Asem) and intended to discuss solutions to trade barriers during the meeting.
Before departing, Gen Prayut said that he would raise issues about export and trade barriers as all the countries were increasingly competing with one another. He said that they are facing the problem of trade barriers and Thailand would have to improve its products to raise their demands in global markets.
"I will have chances to discuss farm product issues. I will have bilateral talks with four to five countries depending on available time. We are ready to talk with all countries especially in informal discussions," Gen Prayut said.
The prime minister also said that violence in the far South would not obstruct trade and investment in Thailand as the problem was contained in the southern border provinces.
He added that he would find opportunities to talk with automotive tire manufacturers to promote Thai rubber in a bid to shore up local rubber prices.
My comment :
From this news it's makes me know that the Prime Minister's efforts to prepare to go to conference and find out a rumor about problems in the export of goods and prices of goods. The Prime Minister raised this issue came up to talk and exchange of opinions in order to find a way of better goods. By finding ways and means to make the items of modern Thai and world markets. So, the Prime Minister would find a way to communicate and explain several to increase confidence and meet Thai country. That it has a chance to make the Thai people and progressive countries have confidence in this government.
