Making the best out of Sino-Thai ties"China is not invading any country - but rather, more people are embracing China," said Pinit Jarusombat, president of the Thai-Chinese Cultural Relationship Council. In an interview with MONGKOL BANGPRAPA, the former deputy prime minister shares his thoughts on the Chinese-US diplomatic relationship and trade tension, and how China's relationship with Thailand has been the tie that binds. Even within the World Health Organization, aid in the form of vaccine relief, for example, is often politicised. The successes it has seen has allowed China to expand its reach in both economic and scientific fields. Chinese leaders have never referred to other countries within the bloc as members of the same family, except Thailand.
