But I believe that it is the nature of the past and current regime on the one hand claim to be the Hub of ASEAN and on the other hand to enter into individual foreign trade agreements.

As for the EEC, this Prayut dream seems to be withering on the vine as the baht grows stronger, the global economy grows weaker and court cases against foreign investors gather momentum (Kingsgate/Hopewell).
