Message from your Chamber

“Greetings from your Chamber! As we bring Q3 to an end, AustCham Thailand would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our Members who have made 2017 a great year so far. In particular, for the month of September, we acknowledge our Phuket Members, for organizing both an informative and enjoyable Panel Discussion and Sundowners. September also saw the launch of our AustCham ASEAN Business Survey with a presentation and panel discussion held at the new Australian Embassy. Stories on both events can be found in this edition of Advance.
Moving forward, we approach October with sadness, as Thailand prepares for the grand cremation ceremony for HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej, to be held 25th to 29th October. AustCham Thailand expresses our deepest condolences to the people of the Kingdom of Thailand for the loss of their great King.
During October, AustCham Thailand has planned our regular Sundowners for the first Wednesday (4th October), with a New Members Orientation to be held beforehand at the Westin Grande Sukhumvit. Following that, AustCham will not organize any events between the period of 13th and 29th October. Wishing you a successful month ahead”
