BANGKOK (Reuters) – Thailand plans to ban corn imports from neighbouring countries that are linked to agriculture burning that causes air pollution, an official said on Wednesday.
The ban will not violate Thailand’s commitments to the World Trade Organization, government spokesperson Chai Wacharonke said, adding the ban would come into force after the government passes the Clean Air Act.
