BANGKOK, Sept 25 (NNN-TNA) – Thailand admires China’s achievements in the past 70 years and stands ready to work with China, to develop the Belt and Road Initiative for the prosperity of Thailand and the region, said Anutin Charnvirakul, Thai Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Health.
“China has made rapid progress in a relatively short period of time,” Anutin said, after attending the opening ceremony of the exhibition “Qin Shi Huang, The First Emperor of China and Terracotta Warriors” held in Bangkok last week.

“Countries like Thailand are impressed by what China has achieved,” the deputy prime minister said.
Anutin said, there are already many cooperation projects between Thailand and China, including those under the Belt and Road Initiative, such as the Thailand-China high-speed railway project.
