Mr. Chadchart Sittipunt, Governor of Bangkok, presided over a speech to Bangkok youth who were selected to participate in the 2024 Youth Exchange Program with Sister Cities, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, and Seoul, Republic of Korea at Bangkok City Hall (Giant Swing), Phra Nakhon District.
He said it was a good opportunity to gain new experiences, which is the key to learning. During this exchange, I want them to study the dimensions of the country and culture to apply them to Thailand. In the end, the most important thing is to gain experience because experience is necessary for self-development. Bangkok is ready to support policies and provide as many educational opportunities as possible. I hope that this exchange project will help provide opportunities for youth to learn and gain experiences to develop Bangkok and prepare us for future changes.
