Abstract

The development of Thai language education in China demonstrates strengths which can be adopted as a guideline for the development of foreign languages teaching in Thailand; and the lessons learned in the analysis could be incorporated into reality by seeking cooperation with educational institutes in China for better effects of both Thai language teaching and Thai Studies.
