ASEAN leaders later approved a proposal to establish ACPHEED. The center will serve as a hub to strengthen ASEAN’s regional capacity for responding to public health emergencies and emerging diseases.  Keep up to date with all things Thailand - Join our daily ASEAN NOW Thailand Newsletter - Click to subscribe  ASEAN health ministers have also discussed a draft agreement concerning the issuance of health certificates for ASEAN travelers, even as these nations must still contend with COVID-19.  Anutin also informed the meeting that Thailand will prioritize strengthening the region’s health system and resiliency against emerging health threats.  During the meeting, the ASEAN Post-2015 Health Development Agenda, pertaining to new ASEAN public health strategies and implementation plans until 2025, was also approved.   -- © Copyright NNT 2022-05-16  - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

wwest5829 4714 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 My additional suggestion for the Kingdom of Thailand is to use diplomacy with the USA to have Thailand health facilities be recognized to not only be approved for offering medical services for US retired military care (current) but also be recognized to give medical care through US Medicare for Expat retirees residing in the Kingdom. This benefits an equal treatment of the US citizens but also promotes Thailand as a recognized center for international standards medical care at a substantial discount to costs in the USA. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes an incredible amount of sense and is a well thought out proposal.  For these reasons alone - Thailand is out!  1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
