BOI to launch road show to restore foreign investors' confidence

BANGKOK: -- The Board of Investment (BOI) will meet with industrialists and investors next week to explain the situations after the deadly bomb blasts on New Year Eve to restore the investors' confidence in Thailand, said Secretary-general Satit Chanjavanakul.

Speaking after meeting with said Industry Minister Kosit Panpiemras, Satit said that BOI would also rely on foreign operators who are doing business here to communicate with new foreign investors about the country's situation.

"Communicating with foreign investors who now have business in Thailand is a better way to send our message out. These investors here will properly explain the situation to new foreign investors," he said.

The first step will start the road-show at the industrial estate in the eastern part of Thailand such as Rayong, Chonburi, and the middle of Thailand including Ayudhaya and Pathumthani.
