From Bangkok to Beijing CBD : Thai Ambassador's Happy Life in Beijing Chaoyang
韩灿才
泰国驻华大使
Chatchai Viriyavejakul, Ambassador of Thai to China
我是泰国驻华大使。我去年四月才到任，所以，在中国大约工作了一年零几个月了 。中泰合作的历史远比两国建交五十年更为悠久。
I’m Ambassador of Thailand to China.I just arrived here last year in April,so it could be about a year and few months of my working in China.Our cooperation are much longer than 50 years of our establishment of diplomatic relations.
如今，中国在许多领域都是泰国最重要的伙伴。朝阳区已做好充分准备迎接国际游客、国际投资者以及全球商贸人士。这里几乎具备了外国访客所需的一切条件。此外，朝阳区还拥有完善的办公设施，我认为，朝阳区具备泰国投资者前来投资的所有优势，是他们投资创业的理想环境。
Now, China becomes No. 1 to Thailand in many areas.Chaoyang District is most ready to welcome international tourists,international investors and traders because there have almost everything that expats all foreign visitors would need.And also since Chaoyang District has office facilities available,I think you have all the reasons for Thai investors to come and invest or to find to start business in Chaoyang District.
去年，我们在三里屯举办了泰国风情节，活动取得了巨大成功。今年，也就是2025年，我们将在朝阳公园再举办一届泰国风情节。我们感到非常自豪，泰国的传统建筑之一，坐落在朝阳公园内的一处绝佳位置。它名为“中泰友谊亭”，建立于中泰建交30周年时，矗立至今已有20年。它是中泰两国人民亲密关系的象征。
Last year, we have Thai Festival in Sanlitun Mall,which was a great success.This year 2025 we will have another.Thai Festival in Chaoyang Park.We are very proud that we have one of our traditional Thai structure in a very good location in Chaoyang Park.Ah it's called a Thai-China Friendship Bell Pavilion and it has stood there for 20 years when we celebrated our 30th anniversary.It represents how close we are in terms of people to people.
我们认为，朝阳公园是展示泰国的最佳场地。让中国民众无需远赴泰国，就能体验泰国风情感受地道的泰国文化。
The Chaoyang Park would be the best location that we could feature a little Thailand for Chinese people to come and enjoy,to experience Thailand.
我认为，泰国人和中国人关系密切，两国人是朋友，也是家人，两国人有许多共同点。拉布布在泰国非常畅销，泰国人喜欢收藏拉布布。我本人并不是一个玩具爱好者，但我儿子非常喜欢玩具。中泰两国人有一些共同点，两国人喜欢相同的事物，两国人都喜欢玩具，并且能够分享同样的体验。
I think Thai and Chinese people are close and we are friends and we are families.And we share a lot of things in common.Labubu is a great sales in Thailand.People like to collecting them.And myself,I'm not a toy person,but my son likes it very much.Some of the things that we have in common.We like the same thing,we like toys.And we can share the same experience.
在我看来，朝阳区的规划非常均衡美好。泰国驻华使馆和我的住所都在光华路，离日坛很近。所以，我常去那里散步和锻炼，在公园里走走，作为我闲暇时的活动，而且，这里离商业区也不远。
I think Chaoyang district is beautifully well balanced.My embassy and my residence are in Guanghua Road,very close to Ritan.So that's my usual place that I take some strolls and exercise,walk around the park,during my free time.At the same time, it's not very far from the commercial side.
对居住在朝阳区的外交人员和外籍专家们来说，这里非常便利。我开车经过（亮马河）很多次，是我推荐朋友们去的一个地方。可以去那里用餐、购物，同时享受那里的环境。这些地方你都能一一找到。
So it's quite convenient for the diplomat life and also expats who live in Chaoyang.I drop by many times，one of those areas that I recommend my friends to make a visit to have dinner and to enjoy shopping and also the environment.There's no place that you can’t find.
