BANGKOK, Dec 1 (Bernama) -- Thailand has sold 100,000 tonnes of jasmine rice to Hong Kong at the average price of US$1,100 per tonne and plans to launch more marketing campaigns to sell more Thai grains to overseas markets, Thai News
Agency (TNA) reported.
Thai Commerce Minister Boonsong Teriyapirom witnessed the signing of a total
of nine memoranda of understanding or MoUs between Thai rice exporters and Hong
Kong importers in Hong Kong on Friday.
Boonsong told journalists that more marketing campaigns will be launched to
boost Thai rice exports to Hong Kong to about 200,000 tonnes annually, from the
current 160,000-170,000 tonnes, with one of them being organised at a major mall
from Nov 30-Dec 6 in a bid to further promote Thai rice in the business island.
According to the commerce minister, similar campaigns will be held in
Singapore in the near future.
