Pretty excited about this collaboration! Learn more about ACT - "Action on Climate and Trade" - and how we're aiming to help developing economies navigate future net-zero value chains here 👉weforum.org/press/2023/04/… Watch our panel too 👀worldbank.org/en/events/2023…

ดีใจที่วันนี้ได้มีโอกาสแบ่งปันความตั้งใจของไทยในเรื่องสำคัญที่เป็นประโยชน์ร่วมกันที่เมืองดาวอสครับ ทั้งการยุติมลพิษจากพลาสติก ก้าวไปสู่ระบบหมุนเวียนและลดขยะให้เหลือศูนย์ ซึ่งประเทศไทยสนับสนุนการจัดทำสนธิสัญญา #GlobalPlasticsTreaty และพร้อมเดินหน้าในการเจรจาต่อไป นอกจากนี้ ผมยินดีที่ได้ร่วมการหารือโต๊ะกลมว่าด้วยการค้า การเงิน และสภาพภูมิอากาศ เพื่อเน้นย้ำความมุ่งมั่นของไทยที่จะเป็นส่วนหนึ่งของ 'ห่วงโซ่คุณค่าที่เชื่อถือได้ ยั่งยืน และใช้ทรัพยากรอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ' ในขณะที่ไทยกำลังสมัครเป็นสมาชิก OECD และเร่งมุ่งสู่มาตรฐาน OECD ด้วยการพัฒนาห่วงโซ่อุปทานคาร์บอนต่ำที่ใช้ทรัพยากรอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ Pleased with the active engagement on shared interests here in Davos. Today, I had an opportunity to speak to Thailand’s commitment to ending plastic pollution and moving towards circularity and zero waste. Thailand supports the development of the #GlobalPlasticsTreaty and will continue to actively engage in the negotiation process. Also pleased to join a Roundtable on Trade, Finance and Climate where I underlined Thailand’s commitment to remaining part of ‘trusted, sustainable and resource-efficient value chains’. As we are applying for OECD membership, we are working to adopt OECD standards for low-carbon and resource-efficient supply chains.
