Sri Lanka, Thailand give the biggest boost to expand bilateral ties
Part 2
Representing Sri Lanka, GJRTI Director General (Actg) B.G.R.W. Gamlath, and representing Thailand its GIT Director Sumed Prasongpongchai, signed the Memorandum of Understanding on behalf of the two countries.
PMD said the gem and jewellery industry, deeply rooted in Sri Lanka’s history, has flourished due to its production of high-quality gems, positioning the country uniquely in the global market. Thailand, currently holding a distinctive position in the international Gem and Jewellery industry, recognises the importance of collaboration. With the shared goal of developing and promoting the industry in both nations, the MOU focuses on information exchange, scientific and technical research, and training activities.
The agreement stems from the 2018 strategic economic cooperation MOU between the Governments of Sri Lanka and Thailand. GJRTI and GIT will collaborate on gem deposit and exploration research, value addition to gemstones, and jewellery manufacturing. The exchange of gem-related rock samples and minerals between the two institutes will be facilitated under the laws and regulations of both countries.
GIT will offer training courses in gemmology, jewellery designing and manufacturing, contributing to the skill development in Sri Lanka. The collaboration aims to increase economic returns from the Gem and Jewellery industry by sharing information on gem materials and deposits.
