The world's longest serving monarch has appointed Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn to represent him in receiving new ambassadors' letters of credence. The Bangladesh mission in Bangkok confirmed that Ambassador Tasneem presented the credentials and goodwill messages from President Abdul Hamid and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to the King at Ambara Villa. She pledged to enhance bilateral relations during her term. Additionally, she serves as the non-resident ambassador of Bangladesh to Cambodia and Permanent Representative of Bangladesh to UNESCAP. In November last year, she introduced herself as Bangladesh's Permanent Representative to UNESCAP to its executive secretary upon arriving in Bangkok. This year in June, she officially became the non-resident ambassador of Cambodia by presenting her credentials. In Thailand, the process of submitting credentials in Bangkok can take some time, but ambassadors are able to start their duties soon after joining the mission. During discussions, the Crown Prince complimented the people of Bangladesh for being hard-working and resilient in the face of various challenges, such as climate change. He emphasized that both Bangladesh and Thailand face similar challenges, especially in regards to climate change and reducing disaster risks. The Crown Prince mentioned his sister Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn's visits to Bangladesh in 2010 and 2011 and showed interest in continuing Thai Royal development projects in the country. Ambassador Tasneem emphasized the need to improve connectivity among Buddhist followers in both nations and to further develop their shared Buddhist heritage through expanding Buddhist circuit tourism.
