Excellency,
I have the honour to refer to Your Excellency's Note
No. RAN/111/1/78 dated 4 September 1978 which reads as follows:
"I have the honour to refer to the Agreement between
the Government of the Republic of India and tfcs Gove /inner: i of
tha Kingdom of Thailand on the delimitation of tsabc-f' boundary
between .the two countries in the Andaman Sea, signed at Ktw Delhi
on Juse 22, 1978. In the chart annexed to the authenticated text
of the Agreement, the words "Maritime Boundary" and f'Seabsd
Boundary" have beers shown in brackets in the title. Since the
agreei title of the Agreement refers to the delimj cation of Seabed^
JBoundary^ between our two countries, a technical error thus has
crepiTTrf.
2.
I have the honour to propose that the titJe part in the
chart be corrected to read cs follows:
"India - Thailand Seabed Bcrrr-daary"
and this text will replace the earlier incorrect t:itlee
3.
1 have the honour further to propose that this Kote and
Yeur Excellency's reply concurring therein constitute an integral<
part of the Agreement of June 22, 1978."
In reply, I have the honour to inform Your Excellency
that the Goverswient of the Kingdom of Thailand agrees to the
proposal contained in the Note under refsrence, and further agrees
that the present Note and trie Note under reference shall constitute
en integral part of the 1978 Agreement on the delimitation of
seabed boundary "between our two countries in the Anrtaman Sea.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest
consideration.
