Luk Thung singer Mike Phiromphorn graced the Thai Pavilion with his culinary skills at the World Expo 2020 Dubai.

“I am glad, proud and honoured to be invited to join a chef in the special event to showcase Thai cooking,” he said. “I am making ‘Zab Fried Rice’ for foreigners from all over the world so they can taste Thai Pla Ra [fermented fish].”

He went on introduce Pla Ra to foreigners visiting the Thai Pavilion.

Some 192 countries including Thailand are participating in this World Expo, which is held every five years under the Bureau International des Expositions.
