Political and business figures gathered at Euronews’ Davos hub for a high-level dinner discussion on closing the divide between the North and South. Long term income disparities are often exacerbated by frailties in infrastructure and high trade costs which, in turn, create supply chain vulnerabilities.
One of the guests speaking on the sidelines of the dinner at the World Economic Forum was Sihasak Phuangketkeow, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Thailand. He said: “We have to move towards more innovation so we need to employ digital technology and most of all we have to make sure that our growth is sustainable, and that requires us to move towards a green economy.”
