SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Sep 30 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The president of the Parliament of the Canary Islands, Gustavo Matos, received the Thai ambassador to Spain, Phantipha Iamsudha Ekarohit, on Thursday on his first visit to the Canary Islands.
At the meeting, they discussed the historical ties between the two countries and bet on strengthening relations between the Canary Islands and the Asian country in matters such as tourism or trade, also taking advantage of the potential of the island’s ports.
The ambassador sent a message of support to La Palma for the volcanological crisis and said she was surprised by the solidarity and collaboration of institutions and the whole of society in general.
Gustavo Matos agreed that cooperation opportunities should be explored and recalled that the Canary Islands’ geographical position between three continents makes it “a very interesting place in this part of the world.”
During her visit, the ambassador was accompanied by the Honorary Consul General of Thailand in the Canary Islands, Wolfgang Kiessling.
