Thai athletics is advancing according to its "Dream Big, Reach Far" vision, approving overseas training for the men's and women's 4×100m relay teams in preparation for the 20th Asian Games later this year. General Chakrit Chaijinda, president of the Thai Athletics Association, chaired the 2025 annual general meeting at The Twin Towers Hotel in Bangkok, attended by senior association officials, committee members, affiliated clubs, and media representatives.

The meeting reviewed and approved several important matters, including the 2024 annual meeting minutes, 2024 performance reports, 2024 financial statements, appointment of auditors for 2025, and the association's strategic initiatives for the coming year to ensure efficient and continuous development of Thai athletics.

Additionally, the association's committee meeting approved overseas training programs for both the men's and women's 4×100m relay teams in preparation for the 20th Asian Games. The committee also approved improvements to the track facilities at the National Stadium in Samutsakhon, Pathumthani.

The athletics association president stated that over the past year, the organization has continuously developed the sport. Following KBU Sport Poll's recognition of the Thai Athletics Association as the most outstanding sports organization and athlete Biw Phuripool Bunsuon as Thailand's top athlete, the committee will continue executing the strategic plan "Dream Big, Reach Far" aimed at achieving excellence at the Asian level and advancing to the world stage. The association credits success in organizing competitions and sending athletes to national and international venues to strong cooperation from all sectors, particularly member clubs that serve as primary sources for developing Thai athletes.
