Prime Minister Prayut Chanocha Wednesday wrapped up his New York trip and claimed it was a success, saying international community expressed their confidence and interest in cooperating with Thailand in areas of trade and investment.
The world leaders have confidence in Thailand and were looking forward to seeing how the government would drive the country forward, the PM said.
He added that he had clarified them that Thai government is following the road map announced after the coup.
According to democratic principles, there must be a constitution before election, he said. Since the previous constitutional draft was rejected, the new draft is needed, following by referendum and election, he added.
Prayut, who ended his trip for the 70th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York Wednesday, had opportunities to meet and consult with Ban Ki Moon, the United Nations Secretary General, as well as Barack Obama, the president of the United States, and took that chance to build understanding with the US government and the US business sectors of Thailand’ situations.
