On 24 June 2022, Her Excellency Mrs. Vo Thi Anh Xuan, Vice President of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam paid a courtesy call on His Excellency General Prayut Chan-o-cha (Ret.), Prime of the Kingdom of Thailand on the occasion of a visit to Thailand to attend the 2022 Global Summit of Women during 21 - 24 June 2022.

Both sides were pleased with the developments in the Strengthened Strategic Partnership between Thailand and Viet Nam in all dimensions and supported regular exchanges of high – level visits and consultations between the two countries with a view to steer the various areas of bilateral cooperation into concrete outcome for the mutual benefits of the peoples of the two countries.

Both sides encouraged Thailand and Viet Nam to step up cooperation in trade and investment, as well as promote connectivity of supply chains in complementary industries to support economic recoveries as the two countries fully resume the opening of their borders upon the improvement of the COVID -19 situation.

The Prime Minister expressed appreciation to the Vietnamese side for supporting Thai investment in Viet Nam and sought its continued support. The Prime Minister also encouraged both sides to closely cooperate in the facilitation of cross-border transport of goods, especially in minimising the processing time at border crossings for agricultural products.

Both sides supported closer cooperation at the people-to-people and local levels through existing bilateral frameworks, such as the full utilisation of sister city partnerships between provinces of Thailand and Viet Nam with a view to translate cooperation into tangible results, particularly in synergizing the local economies between the Northeastern part of Thailand and Viet Nam.
