Thailand and the Maldives have signed an agreement to promote trade.
The deal was signed on Saturday by Commerce Minister Boonsong Teriyapirom and his counterpart Ahmed Mohamed, during a two-day state visit to the island nation. The Thai delegation is being led by Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and the trip is the first by a Thai leader in 34 years.
Trade between Thailand and the Maldives last year was more than US$109 million (3.31 billion baht), up 0.4% from 2011. Thailand's exports totalled $73 million and its imports $36.16 million.
