Chitchai will delve into his own personal experiences in handling consumer protection and product liability matters during his time working for and representing companies doing business in Thailand. He will provide insight into the impact and implications of recent amendments made to consumer protection legislation, most notably of which grants the Consumer Protection Board authority to issue orders and take action against products it deems potentially harmful to consumers.
