Thailand Vision Aligned with Economic Goals: South Australia Governor pledges cooperation
Thailand Vision in line with economic goals
In a recent visit to Thailand, South Australia state governor Frances Adamson expressed her commitment to cooperate with Thailand in promoting the food and agriculture sector. She highlighted the similarities in economic goals between Thailand and Australia, emphasizing the potential for collaboration in these key areas.
During her visit, Governor Adamson met with government officials and industry leaders to discuss opportunities for economic growth and trade investments. She noted that Thailand’s vision to become an “Agriculture and Food Hub” aligns with Australia’s focus on the Southeast Asian region under the “South East Asia Economic Strategy 2024”.
One of the key areas of focus for both Thailand and South Australia is the food and agriculture sector. Governor Adamson highlighted South Australia’s role as a supplier of high-quality food products to the Thai market, making Thailand the state’s 5th largest export market. She also mentioned the importance of grain production in South Australia, which has contributed to Australia’s position as one of the largest producers in the world.
Governor Adamson also discussed the relevance of Thailand’s “Ignite Thailand” vision to South Australia’s economic plans. The vision aims to transform Thailand into a global hub for eight important industries, including precision farming, water management, and green energy in agriculture. She mentioned that many South Australian companies have expertise in maximizing crop yields and reducing fertiliser usage, making them potential partners for Thailand in this sector.
Overall, Governor Adamson expressed her hopes for collaboration and partnership between South Australia and Thailand in achieving their economic goals. She emphasized the importance of understanding the needs of Thailand’s agricultural sector and working together towards long-term growth and transformation.
As Thailand continues to pursue its vision for economic development, partnerships with countries like Australia can provide valuable expertise and resources to support its goals. The cooperation between Thailand and South Australia in the food and agriculture sector is a promising step towards mutual growth and prosperity.
