Thailand and China have many consensuses and cooperation in marine conservation and disaster prevention, especially the establishment of the China-Thailand Joint Laboratory for Climate and Marine Ecosystems, which has become a model of international marine cooperation, Thai marine experts told Xinhua.
Tipamat Upanoi, director of Phuket Marine Biological Center, said during the interview that their center has achieved a series of results in cooperation with its Chinese counterparts in the marine field in recent years, one of which is the establishment of China-Thailand Joint Laboratory, providing a platform for marine cooperation between the two countries.
“Protecting marine ecology is a global task that requires joint efforts from all countries,” said Chalermrat Sangmanee, a fishery biologist from the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources Thailand, who is also the Thai director of the China-Thailand Joint Laboratory.
Chalermrat said both Thailand and China share a common view on jointly protecting the ocean, which is the main reason for the two sides to set up a joint laboratory, aiming to build a platform for cooperation in the marine field and promote marine ecological environment protection and sustainable development of marine resources. https://english.news.cn/20240803/fa6ea9cf314b4d2086422967e5b4daa2/c.html
