On 24 February 2024, H.E. Mrs. Sirilak Niyom, Ambassador of Thailand to Denmark, and Counsellor Jaya Patrachai attended the Danish Muay Thai Championship 2024 at Kalundborg Hallerne in Kalundborg, organized by the Danish Muay Thai Federation.
On such occasion, the Ambassador also attended a dinner with Mr. Hans Emil Olesen, President of the Danish Muay Thai Federation, along with organizing committee of the competition and discussed about plans to promote Muay Thai in Denmark, including supporting the Danish Muay Thai Federation to be recognized by The Danish National Olympic Committee and the Sports Confederation of Denmark to ensure that Muay Thai is held to the same high standards as other Olympic sports in the country. In addition, the Ambassador also informed Mr. Olesen of Thai government's policy to promote Muay Thai at the international level. These include visa-free entry for foreigners to learn Muay Thai in Thailand up to 90 days which will soon materialize; the setting up of standards for Muay Thai teachers by providing training courses and professional certificate to export Muay Thai teachers abroad; and the establishment of the National Muay Thai Institute to effectively raise the art of Muay Thai internationally. The goal is to include Muay Thai as a sport in the Olympic Games in 2032 in Sydney after Muay Thai was successfully included as sport competition in the European Games in Poland in 2023.
Muay Thai is continuously increasing its popularity in Denmark as a sport which can be practiced by all genders and all ages. Currently, there are over 26 Muay Thai clubs in Denmark that are members of the Danish Muay Thai Federation who organizes the Danish championship every year. This year, the winner of the junior competition will travel to compete in the Muay Thai championship in Thailand and the winner of the heavyweight competition will compete in the next Muay Thai championship in Greece.
