The Embassy of Thailand in Doha recently donated a collection of 141 books to Qatar National Library (QNL) to commemorate the 41st anniversary of diplomatic relations between Thailand and Qatar.
Thailand Ambassador to Qatar HE Nathapol Khantahiran was warmly welcomed by QNL officials Abeer Saad Al Kuwari, director of Research and Learning Services, and Lolwa Al Naemi, director of Strategic Planning, on the occasion.
In his remarks on the occasion, Ambassador Khantahiran referred to QNL as one of the most prominent libraries in the Middle East, which offers learning resource for people from all walks of life, not only for the Qataris but for all regardless of nationality.
“The collection of books that are donated today present several aspects about Thailand, such as Thai history, the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great, Thai arts and culture, architecture, tourism, Thai culinary and Muay Thai, as well as Thai language studies and children’s books. We hope that these books will help expand the growing collections at Qatar National Library, cultivate the culture of reading and lifelong learning, and promote better understanding about Thailand among the general public in Qatar,” the envoy said.
“Through these books, which serve as a source of knowledge and wisdom, we hope to bring the peoples of Qatar and Thailand closer together, especially the younger generations who will become our future. This will enrich people-to-people understanding which has been the fundamental aspect of our cordial bilateral relations for the past 41 years,” he added.
Ambassador Khantahiran expressed appreciation to Qatar National Library, Qatar Foundation and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Qatar for their collaboration in the project to mark the 41st anniversary of Thailand-Qatar diplomatic relations.
