China will soon be sending two pandas to Thailand, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries next year. The announcement was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Thailand. The new pandas will serve as goodwill ambassadors and are expected to be a major draw for visitors to Thai zoos.
The Ministry is currently preparing suitable enclosures for the pandas in accordance with Chinese standards. This news comes after Thailand returned the remains of its previous panda pair, Chung Chung and Lin Hui, to China in January.
