The cooperation is meant to enhance Thailand's investment climate and promote private investment in the EEC. Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha on Wednesday received Air Business College chairman Zhao Tao and Chinese business representatives exploring investment opportunities in Thailand, said Werachon Sukondhapatipak, deputy government spokesman. "The Chinese business sector has expressed confidence in Thailand's potential as a favourable investment destination," Lt Gen Werachon said. Thailand also has a plan to promote the EEC as a new-generation economic zone driven by technologies and innovations. As a country renowned for technology development, China will help drive Thailand's new economy into the future, Gen Prayut said.
