Keywords:
Muslim world, Thai perspective, Vision Saudi Arabia 2030Abstract
For the academic article on the importance of the Muslim world from a Thai perspective: a case study of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, the objective is to study the Muslim world, which plays an important role in the international political arena and has had good political, economic, social, and cultural relations with Thailand for a long time and continuously. The results of the study and review of related literature will show that, from a Thai perspective, The Islamic world is a world with a total population of approximately 2 billion people, or approximately 1 in 5 of the world’s, located in an important strategic location. This is especially true in areas known as the Middle East or Western Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and some European countries, such as Turkey, that overlap with Europe and Western Asia simultaneously. However, the academic article on the importance of the Muslim world from a Thai perspective: a case study of Saudi Arabia Vision 2030, will specifically focus on the study of the Muslim world known as West Asia or the Middle East, including studying Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 as a main aspect. This academic article will study Thailand's perspective on the Muslim world and the long- standing relationship between Thailand and Saudi Arabia. However, the change that occurred in the murder case of a Saudi diplomat and businessman that happened in Thailand more than 30 years ago also contributed to the destabilization of relations between the two countries. However, from Thailand's perspective, resuming relations after 32 years will be a good opportunity to re- establish full relations under the Thai Government and Crown Prince Muhammed bin Salman, who developed the country under the Vision 2030 accordingly.
