The longest-reigning monarch in the world has appointed Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn to act on his behalf in receiving the 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 expressed her commitment to enhancing bilateral relations during her term. Tasneem also serves as the non-resident ambassador of Bangladesh to Cambodia and as the Permanent Representative of Bangladesh to UNESCAP. Upon her arrival in Bangkok last November, she presented her letter of introduction as Bangladesh's Permanent Representative to UNESCAP to the executive secretary. Earlier this year, she officially became the non-resident ambassador of Cambodia by presenting her credentials. It is customary in Thailand for there to be a delay in submitting credentials in Bangkok, but ambassadors are able to start their duties soon after joining the mission. The Crown Prince commended the people of Bangladesh for their hard work and resilience in overcoming various challenges, such as climate change. He pointed out that Bangladesh and Thailand face similar challenges, especially in terms of climate change and disaster risk reduction. 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 importance of improving connections between Buddhist followers in both nations and expanding Buddhist circuit tourism to enhance their shared heritage.
