Thailand’s new Foreign Minister to highlight technology in foreign policy

[webfact]

 

Technology is a new emphasis which Thailand will add to its foreign policy. Foreign Minister Parnpree Bahiddha-Nukara says it will help the country to play a more active role on the international stage.

 

Parnpree said he also intends to use public diplomacy to engage Thai people, so that foreign policy can be used as a tool to help improve their livelihoods.

 

He said one of the first things he plans to do, after accompanying Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin to attend the UN General Assembly in New York next week, is to visit people on the Thai-Cambodian border to learn about their living conditions and their expectations of the new government.

 

Parnpree was speaking at a media reception at the Foreign Ministry on Thursday night, during which he offered a glimpse into the foreign policy direction of the Srettha government.
