BEIJING — China's President Xi Jinping met with Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra in Beijing on Thursday, the official Xinhua news agency reported.

Ms Paetongtarn called on the Chinese president at the Great Hall of the People, according to Government House.

Bilateral cooperation to end call centres and other online scams targeting Thais will be a key topic Ms Paetongtarn will broach with Beijing during her official trip to China.

The premier said earlier she would meet Mr Xi, and Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress Zhao Leji on Thursday to discuss a wide range of issues of cooperation between the two countries.

Ms Paetongtarn said Thailand stands ready to protect the safety of all visitors including those from China. She will ask China to look into online platforms that spread false information about tourism in the country.

She also stressed the importance of joining hands to stamp out call centre scams and other online criminal activity. This may require technological support to deal with the problem.

Ms Paetongtarn said at least 14 memorandums of understanding (MoUs) would be signed between Thailand and China in various areas during her visit.

The MoUs include the mutual intention to complete the ongoing Thai-Chinese high-speed train project and connect it with the high-speed rail system in neighbouring Laos.

The prime minister said her visit would touch on Thailand's Land Bridge megaproject and discuss extending cooperation in trade and investment between both countries.

On the sidelines of her visit, she will also meet members of the Thai-Chinese business associations in China while seeking the loan of a couple of pandas from China.

On Friday, Ms Paetongtarn is due to leave Beijing for Harbin, where she will attend the opening of the 2025 Asian Winter Games. She will meet Thai athletes and attend the Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival, said government spokesman Jirayu Huangsub.

Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation Minister Supamas Isarabhakdi said on Wednesday the cabinet approved a proposal for Thailand to sign an MoU with China on new cooperation in using nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

The memorandum is expected to be signed on Thursday in Beijing.

Thailand's gold demand remains robust thanks to investor buying during times of economic and political uncertainty, while inflation and risks posed by Donald Trump's America-first agenda could drive demand for bullion further in 2025, says the World Gold Council (WGC).

In contrast to a 9% global decline, Thailand's consumer bar and coin demand increased 15% year-on-year in the third quarter of 2024, with the country the largest buyer of bars and coins in Southeast Asia, said Shaokai Fan, head of Asia-Pacific (ex-China) and global head of central banks at the WGC.

Consumer gold demand recorded remarkable resilience across 2024, becoming the asset of choice for Thai investors during economic and political uncertainty in the country, he said.



"Thai investors view gold both as a means of value protection and for long-term returns, as bar and coin investment in Thailand remains particularly robust," said Mr Fan.

Invite her come ... more likely to remind her on Myawaddy, why Thailand supported the KK scams, targeting Chinese people & causing must losses.
Already China called all the ASEAN ambassador to Beijing for meeting, directly telling them, IF their country cannot contain scam, China will do it for them
