When: 4 November 2014
Where: Bangkok
Jack Sheehan will be a speaker at this business talk on Tuesday afternoon in Bangkok. His presentation will focus on Lao Legal and Tax Overview/Regional Perspective.
Lao has been drawing the attention of foreign investors for a number of reasons, including its abundant natural resources, low-cost labor force, and proximity to China and the fast-growing markets of ASEAN. What is the potential, and what are the pitfalls of this small country with big ambitions?
The Belgian-Luxembourg/Thai Chamber (BeLuThai), together with the Thai-Canadian (TCCC), New Zealand- Thai (NZTCC) and Thai-Swedish Chamber of Commerce (SWECHAM) is happy to invite you to the business talk ‘Laos – small country, big ambitions’. After the business talk we invite ALL Chamber members to join us for a networking drink.
