DITP Roadshow Ready to RollNuntawan Sakuntanaga, the director general of the DITP, says the department teamed up with 20 Thai entrepreneurs and trade representatives on a business trip to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Turkey from August 30 to September 6. The team explored the major business centres and mega malls that sell auto parts, electronic devices, gems and jewellery, rubber products, food and home decor made in Thailand.

“Dubai and Istanbul, the two biggest cities and tourist destinations in the region, are international target markets we aim to penetrate,” said Sakuntanaga. “The DITP will go on supporting and promoting business in the Middle East, especially market extension and value-added schemes. The DITP will also foster trade between Thailand and potential markets such as ASEAN, China, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States.”
