Thailand has a very strong VS, led by the high standards required of its export industries.
HPAI outbreaks and ensuing political support have also assisted in the rapid high quality development of the VS.
GAP and GMP systems are very appropriate ways to improve animal health and food safety measures nationally.
Movement controls seem to generally function well.
Thailand is active in international animal health policy and forums and in trade negotiations.
Thailand’s veterinary services is one of pioneers in compartmentalization and zoning/regionalization.
