Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev discussed
prospects for expanding bilateral cooperation with Thailand’s Prime Minister
Anutin Charnvirakul. The meeting was held on the sidelines of the World
Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai. The Head of State
highlighted the significant potential for trade and economic cooperation,
describing Thailand as one of Kazakhstan's key partners in Southeast Asia. In
the first four months of this year, trade turnover between the two countries
grew by 76%, exceeding $110 million. Further growth in trade volumes could be
supported by increasing exports of Kazakh agricultural products. The two sides
also expressed interest in developing cooperation in digitalization and
tourism. President Tokayev invited the Thai Prime Minister to pay an official
visit to Kazakhstan.
The President of Kazakhstan also held a meeting with
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet. The two sides intend to increase bilateral
trade by strengthening cooperation in the textile and food industries,
construction, transport, and logistics. Furthermore, Kazakhstan is ready to
share its experience in digitalization and e-government development. The
Cambodian side, in turn, expressed interest in expanding contacts between the
governments and business communities of the two countries. At the end of the
meeting, Hun Manet invited President Tokayev to visit Cambodia.
