No Thai people have been reported injured by the two large earthquakes that hit the South Island of New Zealand, according a Foreign Ministry's Twitter message posted on Monday morning.
The ministry has advised Thais living in the earthquake area to keep abreast of information and advice from the local authorities.
A 7.8 magnitude earthquake killed two people and damaged buildings along the east coast of the South Island on Sunday. A strong second quake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck the same area on Monday morning, the US Geological Survey said.
