Chinese President Xi Jinping met with King Maha Vajiralongkorn Phra Vajiraklaochaoyuhua of the Kingdom of Thailand in Beijing, capital of China, on Friday, calling for joint efforts to further advance the building of a China-Thailand community with a shared future.

Xi said the king has made China the first major country for his state visit and thus becomes the first king of Thailand to visit China since the establishment of diplomatic relations, which fully demonstrates the great importance he attaches to China-Thailand relations and the deep friendship characterized as "China and Thailand are as close as one family."
