Thailand is keen on signing a free trade agreement (FTA) with Bangladesh to further strengthen bilateral trade between the two countries.
According to reports, this was maintained by the Permanent Secretary-designate of Thailand, Sarun Charoensuwan, who called upon Bangladesh Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen, in Bangladesh recently.
Calling for mutually beneficial initiatives and cooperation in order to harness the complementarities existing between Bangladesh and Thailand, Momen reportedly stressed the importance of forging a stronger and more effective regional collaboration by facilitating greater connectivity in the region even as Sarun Charoensuwan on his part further reportedly emphasised holding Joint Commission Meeting between the two countries at a mutually convenient time at the earliest.
