Prayut lures Chinese backPrime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, right, has a phone conversation with Chinese President Xi Jinping at Government House to mark the 45th anniversary of the establishment of Thai-Chinese diplomatic relations. The government spokesperson team said the call was made during a phone conversation with President Xi Jinping on Tuesday. Gen Prayut also asked China to consider importing more farm products from Thailand, a request the Chinese president reportedly promised to implement through existing trade cooperation mechanisms. Thailand is still interested in learning from China's experience, including how it is tackling poverty, Gen Prayut reportedly said. During the call with Mr Xi, Gen Prayut also shared Thailand's experience in handling the outbreak with the Chinese leader and praised him for managing the outbreak in China.
