Thai Foreign Minister off to Beijing

Thailand`s new Foreign Minister, Surakiart Sathirathai, has gone to China for a four-day official visit.

A official spokesman in Bangkok says the minister is expected to seek China`s cooperation in the battle to shut down drug production along Thailand`s border with Burma.

Thailand also plans to raise the issue of aviation rights, as Thai airlines bid to secure new routes that will allow them to penetrate the Chinese market.

The spokesman says other topics to be discussed are trade; development of the Mekong basin region; transnational crime, and China`s relations with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.

Aparts from talks with China`s Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan, Surakiart will also meet President Jiang Zemain before returning to Bangkok on Sunday.
