Chuang Chuang and Lin Hui to stay in Thailand until 2023



BANGKOK, 25 June 2015 (NNT) - The cabinet on Wednesday approved a new deal with China to extend the stay of giant pandas Chuang Chuang and Lin Hui in Thailand.

Chuang Chuang and Lin Hui are two Giant Pandas from Sichuan, China on loan to Chiang Mai Zoo in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The pandas arrived at Chiang Mai Zoo in October 2003 to begin a 10 year conservation program to breed giant pandas. Chuang Chuang and Linhui successfully artificially bred and produced an offspring named Lin Ping in 2009.

Thailand’s Zoological Park Organization and China Wildlife Conservation Association entered into a bilateral agreement over the research program which was set to last from 2003 – 2013. A new agreement was reached and required cabinet approval for the extension of Chuang Chuang and Lin Hui’s stay.

Both pandas will remain in Thailand until 2023. The Zoological Park Organization has also been granted cabinet approval to alter the deal in the future as they see fit.
