Kokbit Thienpreecha of the Tilleke & Gibbins corporate and commercial department has been invited to speak at a Dinner Talk for the Director Certification Program (in English), hosted by the Thai Institute of Directors, at the Millennium Hilton Bangkok Hotel on June 14, 2012.

Kokbit will speak about director legal liability, how directors can adapt their role readily for the upcoming AEC changes in 2015, and possible changes and amendments to the applicable law. He will also discuss impacts of legislation in such areas as anti-corruption, trade competition, anti-dumping and subsidized imports, consumer protection, and limitations on activities of foreign businesses.
