Thailand prepared for growing tensions

Thailand's commercial attaches in South Korea and nearby countries like Taiwan, China and Hong Kong are instructed to closely monitor growing tensions in Korean peninsula.

 

Srirat Rastapana, director general of the Department of Trade Negotiations, said that close consultation on the situation has been established with the Thai embassy in Seoul. 
"The situation remains under control and people there remain calm. What concerns us now is the weakening Korean won, which could make (Thai products) more expensive," she said.
