The Russian Federation has decorated Mrs. Panga Vathanakul, its Honorary Consul for Cholburi and Rayong provinces for nearly 5 years, and the Managing Director of the Royal Cliff Beach Resort in Pattaya, with its Order of Friendship.
Mrs. Panga, along with three other recipients, has been presented with the Russian State Decoration at a function held in Bangkok, Thailand recently. The award assumes much significance since it has happened for the first time in nearly 100 years of Thai-Russian friendship.
On behalf of the President of the Russian Federation, the Russian Ambassador to Thailand, Mr. Yevgeny V. Afanasiev, presented the Order to Mrs. Panga and later to the other three recipients.
The Order of Friendship was institutionalized in 1994. It is awarded to persons for their outstanding contributions to consolidation of friendship and cooperation between nations and peoples. Before Mrs. Panga, no other Thai national has received this Order or any other modern Russia’s State Decoration.
