The visit to Malaysia to attend the 47th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits by H.E. Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, Prime Minister of Thailand, concluded with great success, while marking the first participation of the Prime Minister of Thailand and the current cabinet members, including H.E. General Nattaphon Narkphanit, Minister of Defence; H.E. Mr. Sihasak Phuangketkeow, Minister of Foreign Affairs; and H.E. Mrs. Suphajee Suthumpun, Minister of Commerce, in the meetings of the ASEAN Summits. Thailand demonstrated its pivotal role as a “key strategic player for advancing peace, prosperity and development,” actively promoting cooperation among ASEAN Member States, Dialogue Partners, and external partners on mutually-beneficial issues, particularly on 4 major areas, namely (1) promoting peace and stability in the region on the basis of the ASEAN centrality, (2) fostering a secure region resilient to transnational challenges, (3) advancing inclusive economic development, especially through the finalisation of the Digital Economy Framework Agreement (DEFA), and (4) driving the change for sustainability as Thailand is the ASEAN Coordinator for Sustainable Development, among others.
