On 30 June 2025, H.E. Mr. Maris Sangiampongsa, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Mr. Wu Zhiwu, Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of the Chinese Embassy in Bangkok, co-hosted a reception to commemorate the “Golden Jubilee of Thailand - China Friendship,” and the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Thailand - China diplomatic relations at QSNCC, Bangkok.

Both sides emphasized that the Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership between Thailand and China was an indispensable relationship to the region. Going forward, it is necessary for both countries to strengthen their strategic cooperation which would contribute to maintaining peace and stability as well as prosperity to their peoples and the region as a whole. The event also showcased historical stories and milestones in the journey of Thai - Chinese relations, adding to the rich cultural and culinary elements at the reception. The carefully selected modern blend of Thai and Chinese cultural characteristics was reflected on the stage performances designed by Thailand’s leading mentors in the field: the Ministry of Culture’s Bunditpatanasilpa Institute, Srinakarinwirot University, and Galyani Vadhana Institute of Music.

In addition, POP MART’s beloved Intellectual Property Character (IP) “DIMOO,” given a unique title as “Special Friend of Thailand - China Golden Jubilee,” made a surprise appearance at the event with a parade of 50 Thai and Chinese youths. POP MART recently launched a special limited edition DIMOO character to honour the golden jubilee of Thai - Chinese relations, with unique features symbolizing both Thai and Chinese traits, which has already captured widespread attention.

An immersive exhibition displaying milestones of the bilateral cooperation and friendship between Thailand and China, curated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand, was also set up at the event to invite guests to learn about the historical moments of this valuable relationship. To create a realistic atmosphere, the exhibition was housed inside the scaled-down replica of the historic Saranrom Palace ― the Thai Ministry’s former headquarters, as the Ministry had been commemorating its 150th anniversary this year as well. In this occasion, the Thailand Post also collaborated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand to issue a commemorative postage stamp, marking the 50th anniversary of Thailand - China diplomatic relations. The stamps were unveiled for the first time at the event, before its official release the next day.

Thailand and China officially established their diplomatic relations on 1 July 1975, with the signing of the Joint Communique in Beijing by Thai Prime Minister Kukrit Pramoj and Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai. In 2012, both countries declared the establishment of Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership. Further deepening their ties, in 2022, both sides agreed to work toward the establishment of the Thailand - China Community with a Shared Future for Enhanced Stability, Prosperity, and Sustainability.
