Popular Post webfact Posted December 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2020 Govt offered ideas on steps it can take to attract foreign investment By The Nation Deputy PM Supattanapong Punmeechaow The Joint Foreign Chamber of Commerce in Thailand (JFCCT) on Wednesday offered recommendations on what can be done to attract investments, its chairman Stanley Kang said. The recommendations were made at a meeting held with Deputy PM Supattanapong Punmeechaow to discuss how doing business can be made easier in Thailand. One recommendation was reducing the 14-day mandatory quarantine for foreign businesspersons and technicians, so investors will be encouraged to come here. They also said that the authorities should remove or revise certain regulations, especially those related to visa applications, that are unfavourable to foreign investment.

mtls2005 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Hmm, no mention of "lure" or "scheme"? Quarantine is necessary. Special provisions can be made (e.g. the PM's exemption list, which has been used) and valued investors can be accomodated. Making it easier to do business in Thailand? That's been on the list since the 1500's. The visa situation? Who knows? So many varieties and flavors, but getting a visa isn't that hard, is it?

AlfHuy Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Just lower the content of the brown envelope to a fixed amount of "500"baht, that would probably generate some business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Gringo Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 how about reducing the value of the Baht? that should be very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunPer Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Me thing that more control over the investment might be an issue, i.e. the 49% percent limit, if a broader inflow is wished for beyond those large investment that are exempted from the 49% limit, but perhaps it's only large investments that matters...????

Misterwhisper Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 And yet another deputy PM? How many deputy PMs does this country of 68 million people actually have - and need? No wonder our "principal" PM has so much time on his hands to compose obnoxious songs and write cringeworthy poems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So covid is not a problem when you are a businesspersons? At least, they really know what to do when they will want to encourage tourists to come there.
