 We need to reinvent integrated approach of rural intervention as guided by hand-to-hand initiative. It comes to agricultural innovation and sustainability. Thailand is honored for opportunity to share experiences with our neighbors and international friends of Thailand. Hand-in-hand initiative promise to connect us with farmers and communities to benefit from Thailand's assistance. I feel that the initiative that the AFE organization in Rome has taken for its respected member countries will go a long way in promoting and encouraging the quality of life and the standard of living of our people and the rural agriculture sector. And the Director General introduced me to the hand-in-hand initiative that FAO has launched globally that fits perfectly the type of work and the needs of Papua New Guinea.
