Cooperation among Vietnamese and Thai localities and people-to-people exchange are the foundations for long-lasting Vietnam-Thailand relations, Vietnamese Ambassador to Thailand Pham Viet Hung affirmed during his working trip to some provinces in the Northeast of Thailand from October 7-10.

Heavy rains caused by Storm Noru that hit northeastern Thailand on September 28 night have added more difficulties to the country's provinces already suffering from floods.

Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha on September 12 warned residents in northeast Thailand, especially the province of Ubon Ratchathani to brace for more floods on September 12 night and the next day.
