New Finnish Ambassador to Thailand

by Maria Jønsson 

 

 

BANGKOK: -- Since the beginning of September, Mrs. Satu Suikkari-Kleven has been living in Bangkok with her husband and their 8-year-old daughter. At the presidential session on Friday 8 April 2016, the President of the Republic of Finland appointed Satu Suikkari-Kleven as the new Finnish Ambassador to Thailand. This posting, the new ambassador took up in early September.

 

Satu grew up in a city completely different from Bangkok. Besides being the capital of Finland, there are not many similarities between Helsinki and the capital of Thailand.

 

“Bangkok is a much bigger and more international city than Helsinki, and there is much more space and nature in the capital of Finland,” she says and explains that you can feel like you are in the countryside five kilometres from the city centre in Helsinki. She also explains that she will have to get used to the climate and the traffic here.

 

“Bangkok is a fascinating city with a lot to offer in its rich culture and history.  Also the modern day Bangkok is like an adventure with something new around every corner,” she says. The fascination for everything innovative and colourful is something the two cities share.

 

She also explains that one of the reasons why she wanted this career is that she wants to experience different environments of different countries.
