Some background
Thailand has gone through significant and rapid political changes in recent years. It will be 60 years in 2016 since diplomatic relations were established between the two countries, and relations between Thailand and New Zealand have come a long way in that time. This year is also the 40th anniversary of NZ-ASEAN. This is a real opportunity to hear H.E. Mr Noppadon Theppitak update us on the recent changes in Thailand and how these changes affect its engagement with New Zealand and ASEAN.
