During the meeting, the Premier affirmed the government’s determination to help boost the agricultural industry, while reducing its production cost in terms of better access to raw materials.

Miss Yingluck further stated that Thailand prided itself on its food products, and urged food producers to keep up their standard, so that Thailand would still be able to cater to the world’s demand, especially in organic and halal foods.

Lastly, Miss Yingluck assured that the 2 trillion baht infrastructure project would provide Thai entrepreneurs with a long term solution to the high cost of transportation.
