Thailand’s Trade Competition Committee has issued a set of guidelines to control the retail sector in order to prevent large retailers or retail chains from unfairly taking advantage of producers and suppliers.

 

The committee’s spokesman, Mr. Santichai Sarathawanpaet, said the guidelines have been posted on the committee’s website, www.otcc.or.th, and members of the public and other stakeholders are invited to express their opinions via the website until May 28th, when the guidelines are to be amended and published in the Royal Gazette for implementation.

 

He said that the committee had already received input from large retailers, including modern trade operators, producers and suppliers, before drafting the guidelines.

Fair trade practices

There's nothing fair about practices in Thailand: house ownership; audit companies; bent government officials; police; lawyers; dual pricing; - you may have gathered, by my tone, that I have had experience of the above.
