Thai Foreign Minister to visit NZ

Thailand’s Foreign Minister Maris Sangiampongsa will visit New Zealand this week.

“The visit is another important step as our two countries work to lift our relationship to a ‘Strategic Partnership’ by 2026.

“Minister Maris is a former Ambassador to New Zealand, so has a unique, first-hand understanding of the value of our partnership,” he said.

While in New Zealand, Minister Maris (pictured) will also meet with Trade Minister Todd McClay and Climate Change Minister Simon Watts.
