Thailand has declared its readiness and commitment to host Specialised Expo 2028 in Phuket, stating that this will be the first of its kind in Southeast Asia which will benefit the entire region.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs Permanent Secretary, Sarun Charoensuwan, announced that Thailand’s bid to host the international event in Phuket is on the national agenda, adding that the government sector, private sector and local communities have shown their commitment and support and are fully capable of hosting the world expo.

He also stated that Southeast Asia has never been chosen to host the expo. Therefore, if Thailand is given the opportunity, it will demonstrate Southeast Asia’s readiness to host more expos in the near future.

A Specialised Expo 2028 in Phuket will be held under the theme of “Future of Life: Living in Harmony, Sharing Prosperity”, which Sarun said is in line with Thailand’s BCG economy model, which promotes sustainable growth.
