“Excellency,

On the auspicious occasion of the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Kingdom of Thailand and the Republic of India, I have the honour to extend my best wishes and warmest felicitations to Your Excellency and, through you, to the Government and people of India.

The cultural and historical ties between our peoples span millennia and provide a strong foundation for our diplomatic relations, as highlighted by the commemorative activities organised in both Thailand and India throughout this year. I am pleased that our friendship and cooperation have grown from strength to strength in all areas, especially through the times of hardship from the COVID-19 epidemic.

As we advance towards the next decade of our diplomatic relations, I would like to take this opportunity to reaffirm the Royal Thai Government’s determination to continue working closely with the Government of India to further forge cooperation bilaterally as well as in ASEAN and other multilateral frameworks for the mutual benefit of our peoples.

Lastly, I also wish to extend my best wishes to Your Excellency and the people of India for the continued good health, prosperity and happiness in the years to come.

Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

General Prayut Chan-o-cha (Ret.)
Prime Minister
of the Kingdom of Thailand”
