BANGKOK (DPA): Thailand will host the 10th session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development in March 2000, the English-language Bangkok Post said yesterday.

Deputy Foreign Minsiter Pitak Intrawityanunt confirmed to UNCTAD Secretary-General Rubens Ricupero in Geneva that Thailand would play host to what will be the first major international conference in the new millennium.

The conference will consider three key points. The first is what has been done right and what has gone wrong with international development over the past 50 years.
