"Mister Prime Minister, the press is ready." These words, a whisper barely dancing on the threads of audibility, reverberated through the hallowed corridors of the Government House. The message, though a mere utterance, resonated with the solemn cadence of a ceremonial gong, echoing within the hearts of all who perceived it. It seemed capable of unraveling the delicately intertwined fabric of their souls, rendering them exposed to the raw essence of this momentous occasion.

Prime Minister Thaksin, hailed as a colossus in the annals of Thai history, bore the weight of this moment with quiet dignity. His role was more than just the guardian of the nation he cherished; he was the embodiment of a collective spirit that bridged Southeast Asia and the Pacific. The weight of countless expectations rested on his shoulders, pressing upon him not as a burden, but as a mantle of honor he wore with pride.

Thaksin smoothed down the fabric of his formal black suit, a stark canvas of responsibility, broken only by the vibrant streak of an orange necktie, a silent tribute to his vibrant homeland. His eyes, mirrors to a mind simmering with duty and dedication, reflected the serene resolve that was his trademark. It was as though his very thoughts, a whirlwind of strategy and sentiment, physically propelled him toward his destiny.

As he lifted his left foot, the simple act seemed to reverberate through the continuum of time, every step a new line in the narrative of his nation. With each footfall, the transition from the secure cocoon of his office to the open forum of the press conference room felt like a journey of a thousand miles. He could sense the gaze of the world upon him, millions of eyes fixed on this man who held their hopes and futures delicately in his hands.

Each step Thaksin took resonated with a sense of purpose, like a quiet drum heralding the arrival of a momentous decree. As he moved towards the waiting press, he carried with him the spirit of his people, and a solemn pledge to protect and elevate the dignity of his beloved homeland. This was not just a walk towards a press conference; it was a stride towards history, a step into a future that held the promise of peace and prosperity for the New Caledonian people.

======================​

"Beloved kin, fellow custodians of our shared, precious planet. As the Prime Minister of Thailand and as a humble denizen of this world, one whose existence is interwoven with the very threads of global survival, I stand before you." His voice unfurled through the room, enveloping everyone in its sincerity, its unflinching honesty. "It is with a heart burdened by gravity, yet bolstered by resolve, that I address the escalating crisis in New Caledonia, that troubled jewel of the South Pacific."

He paused, the silence humming with the electric current of his words, amplifying their weight. "The group known as AINC has cast a shadow over New Caledonia, denying its people those inherent human rights that are the cornerstone of our shared existence. The rights to life, to freedom, to safety... they have been tarnished, veiled beneath the toxic mist of selfish agendas." His voice trembled with the sheer sorrow of the acknowledgment. "It fills me with profound melancholy that such pockets of inhumanity exist amidst our otherwise enlightened global society."

His voice rang clear and strong, echoing around the press conference room, each word a clarion call to conscience. "So, I express again my deep disquiet over the South Pacific's turmoil, and my unshakeable solidarity with the people of New Caledonia."

A silence again, the gravity of his words rippling through the air, but this time, it was the quiet before a storm of resolve. "Thailand, a beacon of strength in Asia, with its exceptional Armed Forces, stands ready. We are poised, on the precipice of commitment, equipped and prepared to commit our resources, our skills, our very souls, to support New Caledonia and stand against this tide of tyranny."

His words, now more than ever, took on a mantle of assurance, weaving a promise into the fabric of the crisis at hand. "Our Armed Forces, revered for their professionalism and prowess, are prepared to voyage into the heart of the conflict. They stand as a testament to our nation's resilience, our dedication to the cause of peace, and our unwavering commitment to the common good of humanity."

Each word he spoke wasn't just an utterance; it was a pledge, a solemn vow born from the depths of sincerity and resolve. It painted a vivid picture of a nation ready to stretch out its hand in aid, anchoring the people of New Caledonia amidst the tempest of turmoil. This was more than a promise of military aid; it was a pledge of humanity, an affirmation of Thailand's place in the global community, and a beacon of hope against the dark clouds of strife.

======================​

"As we continue to script the saga of humanity, its relentless stride towards enlightenment and tranquility, it swells my heart with immense pride to bear witness to the pivotal role Thailand has carved for itself amidst this historic tide. We have sailed the tumultuous seas of diplomacy with an unyielding tenacity and indomitable spirit, portraying the grace and maturity of our beloved nation in the grand theatre of the world.

Negotiations, akin to a sublime ballet, demand the fluidity and synchrony of two partners in an intricate dance. With every step, they must comprehend each other's rhythm, their pace, and their intent. It was thus with our esteemed companions in France. Our fruitful discourse stands as an emblem of Thailand's diplomatic fortitude, finesse, and earnestness, as well as a testament to the deep-rooted kinship between our lands. We have located the elusive harmony, a shared resonance birthed from our united resolve to uphold the greater good of humankind.

Our aspiration was never to eclipse our French counterparts, but rather to engage in an equal partnership. The resultant accord is thus not a conquest for Thailand alone, but a shared victory, a beacon illuminating our collective capacity to bridge chasms for a cause greater than ourselves. This profound exchange has once more showcased the resilience of Thai diplomacy, and the unwavering amity we share with France.

United by the cordial bonds of mutual respect, we have journeyed together down this winding path, transmuting a crisis into a prospect - an opportunity to fortify our fidelity to universal virtues, human dignity, and international collaboration. This shared endeavor is a powerful testament to the strength of our alliance with France and our united vision for a world where peace is an enduring reality, not a fleeting dream.

To encapsulate, let this chapter serve as an enduring reminder of Thailand's potential and resolve to instigate positive change on a global stage, to stand steadfast in the face of injustice, and to rally the world to echo the same. As we extend our hand towards New Caledonia, we do so not in isolation, but in unison with France, conjoined by our shared ideals and a common vision."

Thailand, recognized as a potent force within Asia, boasting one of the most revered and proficient Armed Forces, stands ready to mobilize its assets. We are fully prepared to extend our support to New Caledonia, pledging our service to the grander ideals of humanity."

[The rhythmic thrum of three deliberate knocks echoed, languid and haunting, through the hallowed chamber of the Prime Minister's secluded office. Each knock, deliberate as a tolling bell, seemed to stretch the fabric of time itself. A voice, ripened with years of austere governance yet tinged with a lurking curiosity, punctured the heavy silence that hung in the room, making the finely-grained oak door quiver slightly. "Who dares disturb?" the voice asked, its icy undertones seeping into the fibers of the wooden sentinel that barred the outside world.

Hidden away in the cavernous recesses of the dimly lit room, a high-tech camera surreptitiously blinked to life. The incandescent glow of the lens, manipulated by Thaksin's unseen hand, scrutinized the living apparition that had dared to fracture the monastic tranquility of the ministerial sanctum. "Patchapong, liaison from the Foreign Ministry, sir," came the stiff response from the other side, the words cascading into the chamber like hesitant raindrops. Behind the spoken facade of formality, Patchapong's mind wrestled to keep balance, teetering on a tightrope of obedience and profound reverence, while his spirit quivered, its very foundation rattled by the magnitude of the moment. "Enter," came the single-word edict, a thunderbolt that pierced the very essence of the liaison, swinging open the doors to a realm pulsating with raw, untamed authority.

"The President of the United States, Ai Gore, has made a national address from the hallowed confines of the White House's East Room concerning us, sir, and Spain. But the intensity of his focus, it seemed, was reserved primarily for our homeland." The statement, succinct as it was, cut through the air like a lightning bolt, its resonance echoing off the austere trappings of the room, sending shivers down the spines of the ancient portraits and timeless artifacts that were silent witnesses to this unfolding drama. The sheer gravity of the message hovered, a specter of uncertainty, over every seemingly inanimate object that bore witness to the exchange.

With a deep inhale, the Prime Minister held the silence captive for an eternal moment before commanding, "Craft me a retort, scribe. This is a call to arms we cannot ignore." His words swirled into the still air, a warcry borne out of necessity, resonating with the undeniable truth that their sovereignty was a sacred trust not to be trifled with. The narrative had shifted. The world was watching, and it was time for them to reclaim their voice. The game of global diplomacy was afoot, and the stakes had never been higher.]

======================​

"A new dawn breaks over the sacred lands of Thailand, a land I am privileged to call my home; my brothers, my sisters, I greet you in these early hours. It is with the urgency of this dawn that I speak to you now, for we stand at a precipice of profound change, having drawn the unwavering gaze of one of the world's towering monoliths of power, the United States of America."

"As your chosen leader, as a servant of our public trust, and as a humble child of our blessed Thai soil, I promise you the transparency that is the lifeblood of our democracy. Today, it is with a heart weighed heavy by truth, that I must revisit the topic of Operation Oceanic Peacekeeper."

"Scholars versed in the ancient dance of geopolitics, the tireless advocates for humanity who guide us with their wisdom, they all concur: Our beloved Thailand has emerged as a beacon of hope in these troubled times. We are more than a nation; we are an alliance of global citizens, unified under the radiant banner of Thailand. Our struggle has been for more than our self-interest; it has been a clarion call for the fundamental essence of human dignity, the bedrock of all moral rights acknowledged universally."

"This dawn has ushered in an accusation, hurled at us from across the oceans, an allegation that we have overstepped our bounds, meddling in the age-old dance of Transatlantic affairs. This claim strikes at the heart of our national identity, undermining the blood, sweat, and tears we have poured into our collective pursuit of the common good. It reveals a one-sided narrative, a distortion of our noble endeavor."

"Yet, we stand firm in the face of such allegations, holding steadfast to our commitment to the universal ideals of human rights, peace, and mutual respect. We rise not in defiance, but in defense of our shared aspirations, in advocacy for our collective futures. Today, Thailand's voice echoes not just across our land but resonates with each nation under this shared sky. We are the tide that shapes the future, and we shall not be swept away."

======================​

"I stand before you today under the weight of profound misunderstanding, a grave misconception that has driven the United States, a nation known for its towering influence, to cast a dark shadow of doubt over our own noble intentions. First and foremost, I must address the ill-fated deployment of our naval fleet into the roiling waters of the Atlantic. It was a misstep, a miscalculation, birthed from our erroneous assumption that the United States and Spain were teetering on the precipice of war. I shoulder the weight of this error, as a leader entrusted with the hopes and dreams not only of our vibrant citizenry but those of the world looking upon us. I extend my deepest regrets for this oversight."

"Second, to address the words that tumbled from the lips of President Ai Gore of the United States in a last-minute bid for negotiation, I cannot understate the magnitude of his assertions. Our proud Royal Thai Navy had merely traversed the waters from the Indian Ocean towards the Atlantic, devoid of any aggressive or malicious intent, without a whisper of covert negotiation. It was my assessment, as the shepherd of our nation, that our analysis had faltered, leading me to seek counsel directly with President Gore to ascertain the truth."

"In the quest for unblemished transparency, and out of respect for our American counterparts, I wish to state unequivocally that the decision to cease our deployment, to recall our proud fleet, was a decision birthed solely from my judgment. It was a resolution unswayed by the United States or any external entity. It was a choice dictated by the faith I have in our government, a faith grounded in the conviction that we are a nation capable of acknowledging our errors and adjusting our course. We chart our own destiny, my fellow Thai citizens, and this is a testament to our enduring resilience and steadfast commitment to peace."

The Thai Prime Minister Announcement on the Occupation of New Caledonia​

---

“Distinguished Delegates, Respected Citizens of Thailand, and Cherished Members of our Global Community,

At the turbulent junctures of history, when society grapples with daunting adversities, it is upon the strong shoulders of decisive action and unwavering courage that the torch of hope is carried. Today, I am profoundly honored to stand before you, tasked with the narration of a chapter from our recent past that is imbued with Thailand's resolute commitment to peace, justice, and the sanctity of human life.

Envision the serene island of New Caledonia, a paradise cradled in the soothing arms of the South Pacific Ocean. This tranquil sanctuary was recently swept by a tempest of chaos and despair, inflicted by the rebellious forces of the AINC. Despite the brave and resolute efforts of our esteemed French allies, the rising surge of rebellion proved overwhelming. Faced with this formidable adversary, they reached out to us, guided by our shared devotion to democracy, compassion, and solidarity.

Heeding this call for help, our Republic of Thailand, fueled by a profound sense of responsibility and steered by the guiding principles that have shaped our proud nation, responded with urgency and unwavering resolve. Our Humanitarian Aid Forces to New Caledonia (HAFNC), exemplifying the highest ideals of heroism and selfless sacrifice, launched a mission to restore peace, order, and human dignity to the citizens of New Caledonia.

Upon our arrival, our forces faced an unexpected development - the withdrawal of the French government, a decision motivated by their own essential considerations. Though this decision brought new complexities, it did not dampen our resolve. Our forces, reinforced with the strength of our convictions, pressed on with a resolve unbroken.

The story of New Caledonia's liberation is not simply one of strategic triumph; it is a poignant testament to Thailand's steadfast commitment to global unity, the protection of human rights, and boundless compassion. Our forces acted with surgical precision, unyielding honor, and the utmost respect for the sanctity of civilian lives - a manifestation of our nation's highest values and the epitome of humanity at its best.

Today, the sun rises over a New Caledonia freed from the shadow of violence. Our Thai flag waves there not as an emblem of conquest, but as a symbol of liberation, a beacon of hope, and a promise for a better tomorrow.

I stand here to extend my deepest gratitude to our courageous soldiers, and to the resilient people of Thailand for their unwavering support. Together, we have demonstrated to the world that hope is indomitable, that courage will always eclipse fear, and that the spirit of Thailand will forever serve as a shining light, even in the darkest times.

May the breeze of peace blow steadily over our lands, and may the bonds of camaraderie between our nations continue to strengthen with the passage of time.

Thank you for lending me your attention. May our shared journey towards a brighter future continue.”

The Government Statement on the His Holiness Pope's allegations​

---

Ladies and Gentlemen,

We stand before you today to provide clarity and perspective on Thailand's recent actions concerning New Caledonia, and to address the comments made by His Holiness the Pope.

First, we wish to assert unequivocally that the territorial incorporation of New Caledonia has been conducted in strict accordance with international law and guided by mutually agreed principles with our allies and partners, including France, the United Kingdom, and Poland. The agreements reached are the result of careful diplomacy, legal scrutiny, and a commitment to regional stability and international order.

In this context, we have already undertaken the withdrawal of our troops, as per the agreed terms. This decision was reached independently, based on our own assessment and agreements, and not as a response to external pressures or demands.

While we recognize and respect the spiritual and moral concerns voiced by the Holy See, we must firmly clarify that comparisons to historical events such as crusades are not applicable to the present situation. Such analogies may generate unnecessary tensions and misconceptions.

Thailand has always been a nation that respects religious diversity and values peaceful coexistence. We extend our sincere hope that faith leaders, including His Holiness, engage with us in a spirit of dialogue, respect, and understanding.

We further affirm that the situation in New Caledonia has been resolved through diplomatic channels, reflecting our nation's adherence to principles of justice, sovereignty, and international cooperation. We have acted in good faith and will continue to uphold our commitments.

While we recognize and respect the spiritual and moral concerns voiced by the Holy See, we must take this opportunity to offer a broader perspective on international diplomacy and law, guiding principles that Thailand has meticulously adhered to in this matter.

The comparisons made by His Holiness to historical events such as crusades, though evocative, may not fully encapsulate the complexities of the current international landscape. Such analogies, while powerful in a religious context, can generate unnecessary tensions and misconceptions when applied to modern geopolitical scenarios.

We invite the Holy See to consider that the principles guiding our actions in New Caledonia were crafted with careful respect for international agreements, human rights, and the rule of law. These actions were taken after extensive negotiations, dialogues, and considerations, involving multiple nations and international entities. They reflect our nation's deep commitment to maintaining peace, stability, and cooperative international relations.

In our shared pursuit of justice and human dignity, it is essential that we approach these matters with a nuanced understanding of the legal, political, and cultural contexts. Simplifying or reducing them to past historical paradigms may not serve the cause of peace or foster meaningful dialogue.

Thailand, as a responsible member of the global community, stands ready to engage in open and respectful conversation with all parties, including the Vatican. We value the moral voice and spiritual leadership of the Pope but also encourage a recognition of the multifaceted nature of international relations and governance.

We trust that our shared commitment to human rights, compassion, and global harmony will guide our interactions and enable us to move forward with wisdom, respect, and a deeper appreciation for the complex realities that shape our world today.

In conclusion, Thailand continues to embrace its role as a responsible and cooperative member of the international community. We will not be swayed by rhetoric that seeks to divide or mischaracterize our actions. Instead, we shall remain steadfast in our pursuit of justice, peace, and global collaboration.

We invite all to recognize the legal and diplomatic resolutions already achieved, and to join us in focusing on the future, fostering growth, understanding, and shared prosperity.

Thank you.

Ender

Statement on the Deployment of the United States Task Force near New Caledonia​

---

To the Esteemed Citizens of Thailand and Members of the International Community,

The Government of the Republic of Thailand acknowledges the recent dispatch of the United States' joint Navy-Coast Guard task force to the waters surrounding New Caledonia. The longstanding global commitment of the United States to peace and stability is well-understood, and the bond of collaboration and mutual respect between our nations is deeply valued.

As a beacon of progress and leadership in Asia, Thailand has always championed principles of peace, cooperation, and the furtherance of Thai Progressive Democratic ideals across the continent. Our endeavors in New Caledonia have been guided by these principles, characterized by unwavering transparency, a deep-seated commitment to humanitarian missions, and an abiding respect for international conventions and norms.

We wish to emphasize that matters pertaining to New Caledonia and the broader Pacific region are inherently linked to the nations within this geography. Thailand advocates for an approach that fosters inclusivity and collective decision-making, avoiding actions that may inadvertently disrupt the intricate balance and mutual trust that has been cultivated over many years.

While the intentions of the United States are recognized, it is essential for the global fraternity to understand the nuances of regional dynamics. The Pacific and Asia should predominantly navigate the discourse on regional concerns, upholding the traditions, sentiments, and collective aspirations of its peoples. We believe that external initiatives, no matter their foundational goodwill, must remain attuned to these regional sensibilities to ensure genuine collaborative progress.

In summation, the Republic of Thailand reaffirms its commitment to fostering open dialogue and understanding with all nations. We stress the significance of regional voices leading regional discourses and trust in a future where every nation's sovereignty is upheld and every voice finds its rightful echo.

With profound respect,

Somkid Jatusripitak
Deputy Prime Minister
Government of the Republic of Thailand

Statement by the Government of the Republic of Thailand on Deployment near New Caledonia​

---

To the Esteemed International Community, Our Allies, and the People of the Republic of Thailand,

In light of recent events and the evolving geopolitical landscape surrounding New Caledonia and the Pacific at large, the Government of the Republic of Thailand finds it necessary to provide a comprehensive address concerning our actions and intentions in the region.

Purposeful and Thoughtful Deployment:

Consistent with our long-standing commitment to regional peace, stability, and mutual respect, the Republic of Thailand has taken the deliberate step to deploy the first frigate squadron for patrols in the waters adjacent to New Caledonia. This decision wasn't made in isolation but in conjunction with our overarching strategy of ensuring that Asia and the Pacific remain territories where the voice and agency of its own people are paramount.

Asia-Pacific Dynamics – A Shared Responsibility:

Our deployment is not merely a reflection of our military and strategic interests. Instead, it mirrors our unwavering commitment to preserving the unique cultural, historical, and geopolitical dynamics of the Asia-Pacific region. Our actions serve as a manifestation of our dedication to safeguarding this region from any external influences that may not align with the intrinsic values and aspirations that have been deeply rooted here for centuries.

It is also pertinent to emphasize that while the presence of international allies, including the United States, is recognized and appreciated, it remains a guiding principle for us that the Pacific and Asia must lead in all discourses concerning their futures. This conviction stems from our shared histories, our intertwined cultures, and the mutual aspirations that bridge the vast expanse of our region.

A Call for Collective Collaboration:

Thailand has always believed in the power of collective collaboration. The Pacific's vastness isn't just a testament to its geographical expanse but also to the myriad cultures, traditions, and histories it houses. We sincerely hope that our actions are perceived as an extension of our hand in friendship, ensuring that the Pacific remains a region of peace, prosperity, and mutual growth.

Our recent collaboration and mutual understanding with the United States and other allies stand as a beacon of what can be achieved when nations come together with respect, love, and a shared purpose.

Conclusion:

The Republic of Thailand reiterates its commitment to a Pacific where dialogue is preferred over confrontation, where understanding trumps aggression, and where love and respect for each other's sovereignty and aspirations guide our actions.

In this era of rapid change, we vow to stand as a steadfast partner to all nations that share our vision of a harmonious, prosperous, and peaceful Pacific. Together, let us write a chapter of unity, love, and cooperation that future generations will look back upon with pride.

With the deepest respect and affection,

Somkid Jatusripitak
Deputy Prime Minister
Government of the Republic of Thailand

With profound sadness, we bear the weight of loss, and our hearts are intertwined with the grieving families, friends, and communities here in Thailand and across the globe.

The catastrophic explosions at the British, Polish, and American embassies have not just scarred our capital's landscape but have touched the very soul of our nation.

The bonds we share with nations are sculpted from trust, understanding, and shared aspirations. This incident, though harrowing, will not deter our commitment to these values but instead fortify our resolve.

The safety and sanctity of diplomatic missions within our borders are of paramount importance. We hold in the highest esteem the international representatives who call Bangkok their temporary home, and any threat to their well-being is received with the utmost gravity and seriousness.

Given the profound international implications of this incident, we extend a heartfelt plea to all nations to approach the unfolding scenario with patience, understanding, and tact. The delicate web of international relations thrives on trust, and premature assumptions or speculations may inadvertently strain these ties. The Republic of Thailand is ardently engaged with stakeholders in meticulously piecing together the truth. We kindly request the unwavering support of the global community in this endeavor.

Our commitment remains unwavering: to ensure that justice is served and that preventive measures are firmly established for the future. The indomitable spirit of the Thai people shines even in the face of adversity, and we harbor an unyielding confidence in our ability to heal, rebuild, and continue our forward march as a cohesive and united republic.

In conclusion, the Republic of Thailand reiterates its unyielding allegiance to ideals of peace, mutual understanding, and collective prosperity. We are unwavering in our resolve to continue forging paths of mutual respect and understanding with nations across the world, ensuring that the values we deeply cherish resonate globally.

With the deepest respect and sincerity,

Anucha Nakasai
Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office
Government of the Republic of Thailand.

Announcement on Strengthening Border Security Measures in Light of Recent Events​

---

To the Esteemed Citizens of the Republic of Thailand, and Honored Members of the International Community,

The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Thailand addresses you in this solemn hour, with the memory of the Bangkok Incident still painfully fresh in our collective memory. We acknowledge, with the heaviest of hearts, the duty before us - to intensify our vigilant safeguarding of the borders of our cherished nation.

Building upon the Royal Thai Army Border Patrol Framework, a series of measures have been activated with immediate effect to enhance the security and oversight of our territorial boundaries:

1. Enhanced Vigilance: All border patrol outposts, watchtowers, and rapid response units will operate on heightened alert levels, ensuring an unbroken cycle of surveillance and swift action. All 69,000 paramilitary personnels are called to mobilized.

2. Deployment of Additional Assets: As a demonstration of our unwavering commitment, we are mobilizing an additional battalion of the Royal Thai Army to assist the Border Patrol in its operations. Their presence will augment our existing strength, infusing fresh energy and resources.

3. Advanced Technological Implementation: Our surveillance systems, including drones, aerial surveillance, and motion sensors, will be operating at peak efficiency, backed by increased monitoring personnel. Efforts will be redoubled to monitor all sections of our borders, with a special focus on sensitive and previously vulnerable areas.

4. Collaborative Endeavors: The Ministry of Defense is intensifying its collaboration with various internal agencies. The Royal Thai Police, the Customs Department, and local administrations will play an even more significant role in fortifying our borders. Joint operations and real-time intelligence sharing will be standard procedure.

5. Immediate Infrastructure Enhancement: Existing border fencing and barriers will undergo a rapid assessment and upgrade. New, fortified barriers will be erected at critical points to deter any unauthorized infiltration.

6. Community Engagement: Local communities living along the border will be involved more intensively in our security paradigm. They will be provided with the necessary tools and training to alert the authorities about any suspicious activities, ensuring a grassroots-level vigilance system.

7. International Cooperation: We extend a hand of cooperation to our neighboring countries, urging them to work closely with us in these trying times. Joint patrols, intelligence sharing, and strategic coordination meetings will be held regularly to ensure seamless security operations.

While these measures might introduce delays or inconveniences in regular border activities and trade, we urge patience and understanding. The protection of our nation's sovereignty and the safety of our citizens remains our utmost priority.

The spirit of Thailand remains undeterred in the face of adversity. The values that define us – resilience, unity, and an unwavering commitment to our nation's sovereignty – guide our way forward. We pledge, with the utmost sincerity, to ensure our borders remain inviolable sanctuaries of peace and security.

With the highest respect and dedication,

General Chavalit Yongchaiyudh
Minister of Defense
Government of the Republic of Thailand.
