Mr. Rajat Shukal, Global Head & Principal Partner of URS Media and AsiaOne Magazine, and Co-Founder & Partner ASIAONE Media Holdings LLC, declared with pride, "With this 13th Edition of Asian Business & Social Forum, AsiaOne would be completing around 3000 awards in the last 4 years. There is representation from around 13 countries today, at the forum, namely Morocco, Maldives, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Austria, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia, Bahrain, Timor-Leste, Finland and Sri Lanka. The entire vision of AsiaOne Magazine is to get Asia on one platform and to disrupt the perceived superiority of the western brands over the Asian brands and this notion gave birth to Asia's Greatest Brands." Being excited and elated about the fact that AsiaOne Summit is being held in Bangkok for the first time, he stated, "Bangkok is a phenomenal city. It is my favourite city for tourism. In 2019, it was one of the most visited cities in the world - this calls for a huge round of applause for all Thai people, who welcome people from different regions and different parts of the world with open arms."
A prelude to the 13th Asian Business and Social Forum was a Networking Meet called 'India-Thailand: Today, Tomorrow, Together' which was organized by AsiaOne Magazine & URS Media on 6th February 2020 in collaboration with the India Thai Chamber of Commerce (ITCC) at their premises at Sathon, Bangkok. This exclusive networking Meet saw the presence of eminent dignitaries such as His Excellency Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva, the Former Prime Minister of Thailand and Her Excellency Mrs. Suchitra Durai, the Ambassador of India to the Kingdom of Thailand, who shared their insights about further enhancing the cordial ties between the two nations.
Bent on promoting Asian Brands and leaders throughout the world AsiaOne endeavoured to enhance the cordial relations between the two countries through this Meet and attempted to highlight the fact that India and Thailand share a strong historical and cultural connect. Speaking at the meet, H.E. Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva asserted, "Thailand and India should leverage their new land link to strengthen ties when the 1,360-kilometre trilateral highway is completed next year." He further stated, "We have to bring Myanmar along and use all platforms to drive this forward. Land connectivity will make a real difference not just in terms of physical transportation but also to bridge a psychological gap that exists between Thailand and India because we don't share a land border." Talking about the bilateral trade between the two countries, the Indian ambassador H.E. Mrs. Suchitra Durai said that they are doing "reasonably well" and invited "Thai companies to come and invest in India." She added, "around 2 million Indian tourists visit Thailand every year" and hoped that "more Thai people will go to India."
The Meet was followed by the 13th Edition of Asian Business & Social Forum 2019-20 & 4th Edition - Asia's Greatest Brands & Leaders 2019-20, where some of the Asia's Greatest leaders were recognised and felicitated for their outstanding contribution to the Asian economy and society.
