1. Paying tribute to the Thai soldiers who served in the Korean War. On 12 December 2025, the Royal Thai Embassy, in cooperation with the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs of the ROK and the UN Memorial Cemetery in Korea (UNMCK), organized an interment ceremony for the ashes of Reserve Sergeant (Navy) Manoch Pummaneekorn and Private Narong Yeamniyom, Thai war veterans of the Korean War, at UNMCK in Busan.

3. Strengthening the Thai community in the ROK, with representatives from various Thai organizations in attendance, including the Nuad Thai Volunteer Association of the ROK, the Thai Students Association in the ROK, the Thai Friendship Center in Gimhae, the Thai Women’s Council of the ROK, and the Thai Cultural Council of the ROK.

4. Thailand–Cambodia relations. The Ambassador called upon the Thai community to maintain peace and to avoid any potential confrontation with Cambodian individuals or communities, as such actions would be of no benefit to any party.

The event also featured more than 73 charitable food stalls organized by members of the Thai community in the ROK. This initiative reflected the unity, solidarity, and strong spirit of cooperation among Thais living abroad, while further reinforcing the strength and cohesion of the Thai community in the ROK in a sustainable manner.
