Thai FM wins world confidence in Thai government

BANGKOK, September 28 (TNA) - General Tanasak Patimapragorn, Thailand’s deputy prime minister and foreign affairs minister, is satisfied with his attendance at the 69th UN General Assembly in New York. He said that other friendly nations were confident of the work of the Thai government that was leading the country to secure democracy as well as of Thailand's international roles. General Tanasak delivered his speech at the UN General Assembly on September 27. Afterwards he said that in the participation he learned that all countries had confidence in and support for Thailand. He said it was a good opportunity for Thailand to present its cooperation with the international community including its efforts to cope with global warming, the Ebola virus disease and terrorist acts and to promote sustainable development. In his speech, General Tanasak told the general assembly that Thailand needed to make some changes for its own security. He also insisted that Thailand remained in its democratic atmosphere and ensured human rights and transparency and the Thai government would work for the security of ASEAN. In New York General Tanasak attended ASEAN-UN and ASEAN-US meetings, had informal meetings with ASEAN ministers, and met members of the US-ASEAN Business Council who, he said, had confidence in Thailand. He also met UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon and had bilateral talks with the Bahrain prime minister and representatives of countries including China. He said that all countries expressed better friendships towards Thailand. Norachit Sinhaseni, Thai ambassador and permanent representative to the UN, said that attempts to explain the necessity to take charge of national administration by this government reduced the number of parties that misunderstood Thai situations. Many countries praised the Thai government for creating stability and peace in the country, he said. (TNA)
