Saudi Arabia, Thailand ink 5 deals

Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince and Prime Minister Prince Mohammed bin Salman held key talks with Thai Prime Minister and Minister of Defense General Prayuth Chan-ocha. The both leaders witnessed on Friday the signing of five deals between the two countries including the establishing of the Saudi-Thai Coordination Council.
At the outset of the meeting, Crown Prince wrote a word in the visitor log, then family photos were taken on this occasion.

Then, Crown Prince and the Thai Prime Minister discussed aspects of bilateral relations, and ways to develop and enhance them, in addition to exchanging cordial conversations on a number of issues of common interest.

The Crown Prince said that the deals signed today will benefit the economy of the two Kingdoms.

“Since our first meeting with you Saudi Arabia nine months ago, it was agreed to cooperate in many sectors, and many of them were accomplished in a way that exceeds our expectations,” Crown Prince said during the talks.

He added: “This confirms that the opportunities between our two countries are greater than what we aspired to.”

He pointed that today we’re working to cooperate in several areas in energy, tourism, investment, infrastructure, agriculture and other fields from which our two countries will benefit.

Prince Mohammed said: “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was the first Arab country to establish a relationship with Thailand in the fifties of last century, and now we look forward to moving to another stage in the relationship between the two countries.”

For his part, the Thai Prime Minister welcomed Crown Prince and the delegation accompanying him. He expressed his sincere thanks for accepting the visit and participating in the informal dialogue of the leaders of the member states of the Summit of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum.

He also extended his greetings to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz. He stressed his readiness to work with Crown Prince to support and strengthen bilateral relations between Thailand and Saudi Arabia.
