The role of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth in the development of Saudi-Thai relations.

Abstract

This research aims to study the role of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY) in strengthening Saudi–Thai relations by employing descriptive and inductive methods of data collection. The findings reveal that WAMY played a significant role in creating unity of thought, strengthening bonds of brotherhood, and enhancing the creative role of youth in building a new society. It also assisted in training and academic education in cooperation with various organizations, while contributing to community development in both humanitarian and social aspects for Muslims and other residents in Thailand. WAMY supported the care of orphans by integrating them into society and fostering their scientific and moral capacities, enabling them to contribute to the dissemination of knowledge within their communities. Moreover, WAMY organized youth training courses to promote development, self-improvement, and resilience in facing natural crises, and initiated strategic and investment projects aimed at achieving sustainable positive change. The organization also provided consultation and assistance in educational information, coordinating with institutions to support youth, students, and the wider public. Importantly, WAMY is recognized as one of the key links in the historical and contemporary relationship between Saudi Arabia and Thailand, while continuing to establish and develop training programs to foster the skills and habits of students in educational institutions.
