Tilleke & Gibbins is proud to announce the appointment of Michael K. Lee as a Partner of the firm, effective January 1, 2012.

Oxford Business Group (OBG), the global publishing, research and consultancy company, has renewed its partnership with Tilleke & Gibbins for its latest report on Thailand’s economy.As part of the collaboration, which marks OBG’s third year of partnership with the law firm, Tilleke & Gibbins will work with the Group’s editorial and research team to produce the legal section of The Report: Thailand 2012.

Vietnam Business Forum, a weekly magazine published by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry, featured Tilleke & Gibbins in its edition for August 1-8, 2011. This was a special edition of the publication, as it was focused on the 35th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Thailand. The issue highlighted political, economic, trade, and investment achievements in Vietnamese-Thai relations since 1976, while also looking forward toward potential future cooperation between the two nations.

In the wake of 2010’s political unrest and with upcoming national elections on the horizon, the climate for business and foreign direct investment in Thailand remains uncertain. The Report: Thailand 2011, published by the Oxford Business Group in cooperation with Thailand’s Board of Investment, states that political stability following the election will be a key factor in fostering a favorable investment environment in the months ahead.
