Qatar lifts ban on imports of Thai chicken meat

BANGKOK, June 16 (TNA) - Qatar has lifted its ten-year ban on Thai chicken meat, imposed since 2003 after the outbreak of the Avian Influenza in Thailand. The lifting comes months after Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s visit to Qatar in May last year, where she discussed dropping the ban with her Qatari counterpart. According to Thai officials, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) had confirmed that no avian flu virus was found in Thai poultry exports for more than a year. (TNA)
