Bangkok: "Jiraporn" gave a speech at the celebration of equal marriage at the embassy in Thailand. Minister Jiraporn, a representative of the government, gave a speech at the celebration of equal marriage at the embassy in Thailand, stating that Thailand's passing of the equal marriage law reflects the progress towards true equality. Last night, Ms. Jiraporn Sindhuphrai, Minister to the Prime Minister's Office, as the guest of honor representing the government, gave a speech at the EU-AUS-CAN-UK Pride Reception 2025, which was jointly organized by the embassies of the European Union, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom in Thailand. According to Thai News Agency, Ms. Jiraporn stated that Thailand's passage of the Marriage Equality Act this year marks a historical milestone that not only reflects the progress of the LGBTQIA+ community, but also demonstrates the power of love, justice, and human dignity that should not be limited by gender or sexual orientation. Amending the Civil and Commercial Code to u se inclusive language is more than just an improvement of the law but also reflects the direction of Thai society, which is moving towards true equality. 'Thailand is the first country in Southeast Asia to legalize same-sex marriage. This is a significant step towards equality and a sign of hope for the entire Asian region. However, legislation is only the beginning. There are many challenges that need to be addressed together, such as education, understanding, and law reform. The Thai government is ready to work with all sectors, both domestically and internationally, so that everyone can live equally, safely, and with respect from society,' said Ms. Jiraporn. Ms. Jiraporn expressed her gratitude to the European Union, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom for their continued support and for standing firm on the principles of human rights, which are important guidelines for Thailand to move towards sustainable equality. This event is an important platform that reflects the global community's acceptance of Thailand's role as a leader in equality in the Southeast Asian region.
