British Chamber Of Commerce?

[buddy]

Dear All,

This topic is directed to those companys and individuals who have joined in the past or are still members of the British Chamber of Commerce in Bangkok.

I am considering joining but would like your opinion if you consider it was worth the money from the point of view of networking and gaining any business from it?

Why did you join?

Why did you leave?

What are the pluses and minuses?

best regards.

It depends on your business and what you want out of it.

My company is a member of Austcham and the networking events usually have 300+, and they have events in Pattaya, Phuket and Chiang Mai. It is also a good source of information on business in Thailand.

Do you mean joining for yourself as an individual, or your company? If individual, I'd say no point in spending the money to join, if for a company then yes it could be worth joining.
