Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Nguyen Phu Trong,
highlighting that the two countries have agreed to accelerate their ties
to strategic partnership.
The National News Bureau of Thailand commented that after over three decades of nurturing the relationship, Vietnam and Thailand decided to lift up their ties to a new height by reaching a number of agreements in economics, politics, culture, national security and regional cooperation.
The Bangkok Post newspaper cited Pichayaphant Charnbumipol, head of the East Asia Department of the Thai Foreign Ministry as saying that Vietnam is the first ASEAN country to choose Thailand for signing strategic partnership agreement, which paves the way for the further consolidation of their ties in all realms.
According to the Mass Communication Organisation of Thailand (MCOT), the upgrade of the Vietnam-Thailand bilateral ties and the expansion of their cooperation will benefit people of both countries.
MCOT quoted Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra as saying that she highly values the visit by the Vietnamese Party chief as this is the basis for the two governments to head to the signing of a strategic partnership agreement.
The Prime Ministers of the two countries are scheduled to sign the agreement during their joint cabinet meeting in October in Thailand , it said.
MCOT added that during the visit, the two sides agreed to regularly organise delegation exchanges to increase mutual understanding and set a target of raising two-way trade by 20 percent to 15 billion USD by 2020.
The Nation newspaper also gave space to underline the new strategic partnership agreement, describing it as a great effort of Thailand to strengthen ties with its major rice competitor.
