The government has put off the upcoming Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economy Cooperation ( Bimstec) summit until further notice.
Due to the country’s ongoing transition to a new state, the foreign interests government announced yesterday that the event, scheduled for Sept. 3 through Sept. 4, had to be postponed.
The government has decided to postpone the Bimstec Summit and associated sessions in order to allow Thailand to be fully prepared to expand the program within this model for the “greatest profit” of the Thai people and the member nations of Bimstec, according to the statement.
New times for the 6th Bimstec conference may be given at the earliest possibility, the government said.
Founded on June 6, 1997, with the drafting of the Bangkok Declaration, Bimstec is an international company consisting of seven governments connecting South and Southeast Asia– Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
The delegations typically take place every two centuries.
