Each of which will be presenting their identity and nation’s pride under the theme “Connecting Minds, Creating the Future.” As for Thailand Pavilion, the Pavilion will be presenting Thailand under the theme “Mobility for the Future” that will allow visitors to discover more about the nation’s creative advances in the fields of transportation, logistics, digital connectivity and personal mobility together with its core value of nation’s warm hospitality, all of which the visitors will be able to experience from the very first step unto the end of their journey.
