Because there are trade links to various neighbors. I myself have not been to Chiang Rai Province for many decades and during the campaigning period I did not come. Another person came. But this time I came and received a warm welcome. I would like to greet everyone and talk with all government agencies. It is also considered one of the first provinces. that he and his group came to visit after receiving His Majesty’s graciousness Appointed as Prime Minister

Chiang Rai Province is an important trading point in Thailand. Whether it is transporting goods from many provinces travel including agriculture They are well aware of the problems, whether they are drugs. All vices The government must give importance Social problems are also a big problem. But this is just one point of the problem.

The Prime Minister further said: We have heard opinions on the first issue regarding investment in transportation. Must sympathize with the private sector Meanwhile, the government sector also has a heavy investment and budget burden. But the proposal of a working group for the private sector to work with the government sector Where can it be done faster and make transportation better for better international trade and logistics? I think the public and private sectors must set up a joint committee. It must be considered.

“But if you ask for everything, you probably won’t be able to do it. Because from what I’ve heard, the budget is probably quite large. Especially regarding tourism, this is important. It must be linked to the PM 2.5 problem as well, by Pol. Gen. Patcharawat Wongsuwan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Natural Resources and Environment. It will be announced as a national agenda. All this We are a peace-loving country that does not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. We promote cross-border trade. Being told that cross-border trade is 90 billion baht per year is considered very high. I believe that if the level is raised It should be much higher than this. In terms of making it more agile.”
