Mrs Pojjana highlighted the clear mission of the chamber, to serve as a vital bridge connecting businesses and cultural landscapes of Hungary and Thailand, saying, “Our core objectives revolve around four key pillars: to promote trade and investment, cultural exchange, tourism activities and educational opportunities. We believe that by focusing on these areas, we can create a strong and sustainable partnership that benefits both our countries."
The guests were entertained with Hungarian folk dances and music while dinner included renowned Hungarian goulash and rich Hungarian wines.
HunCham is a new chamber of commerce, only established in May 2023 with the strong support of the Embassy of Hungary.
