According to the minister, Thailand aims to become an international medical hub by 2026 in four areas; wellness, medical services, academics, and products.
Currently, we’re preparing using the country’s health service system combined with seven Thai strengths, including well-known tourist attractions, top medical facilities, expert doctors, reasonable prices, Thai hospitality, Thailand’s absolute facilities, and the wisdom of traditional Thai medicine and alternative medicine.
These things will attract people worldwide to Thailand for wellness and health care.
Expo 2025‘s theme is “Designing Future Society For Our Lives,” which promotes health and medicine by using technology to make people happy and healthy.
Thailand’s theme for the exhibition is “Connecting Lives for Greatest Happiness”, emphasizing the Siam Smile, which creates happiness and attracts people from all over.
“Bhumi Phiman” is a design inspired by Thai culture and landscapes. In front of the exhibition hall, an elephant statue will stand, symbolizing Thailand’s abundance and longevity. The statue will be decorated with wood, symbolizing Thai people using their resources wisely.
There will be three zones in the hall:
Exhibit 1: “Bhumi Withi” is the first zone that welcomes visitors to “Bhumi Phiman”, a land of natural resources and good cultural traditions, including an abundance of great food.
Exhibit 2: “Bhumi Khumgan” tells stories from the Thai way of life, when people used Thai medicine before developing medical and public health innovations that make Thailand a world icon in medicine and health.
Exhibit 3: “Bhumi Siam,” allows visitors to see a Thai landscape and experience Thai culture. In addition to Thai food and products derived from Thai wisdom, visitors will be able to see Siamese smiles.
Osaka, Kansai, Japan, will host Expo 2025 from April 13 to October 13.
