That visit led to an agreement between Thailand and Saudi Arabia to fully restore diplomatic relations after ties were suspended for over 30 years. The Saudi-Thai Investment Forum was organized by Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Saudi Ministry of Investment. Its purpose was to provide a platform for the private sectors of both nations to work towards developing trade and investment partnerships. Don also highlighted the Thai government’s roadmap for restoring ties between the two kingdoms. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-05-17 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.
