Cynthia M. Pornavalai to Speak on the Future of Foreign Business in Thailand

Dataconsult Ltd.

The Thailand Corporate Finance Forum, a peer group of chief financial officers, finance directors, treasury directors, and senior accountants, will be hosting a discussion on the topic “The Way Forward for Thailand’s Foreign Business Act: Protectionism or Liberalization?” The debate will cover issues such as the prospects for amendment of the Foreign Business Act, the establishment of a Thailand-EU Free Trade Agreement, Thailand’s privileges as they relate to trade, the impact of ASEAN, and the importance of liberalizing foreign business to compete with other regional locations. Cynthia M. Pornavalai, a partner at Tilleke & Gibbins and a leading expert in free trade agreement negotiation and Japanese business in Thailand, will be joining three other distinguished speakers to lead the discussion.

The event will be held at 8:30 a.m. on June 27, 2013, at The Bangkok Club in Sathorn City Tower. If you would like to attend this event, please contact Dataconsult.
