American Ambassadors on hand for a special business event<\/strong><\/p>\n

As our ASEAN community continues to work together for a better tomorrow, we are beginning to see the positive results firsthand. As an important part of the greater Mekong Delta, Cambodia and Laos are emerging as some of the fastest growing economies in the world.\u00a0Both countries offer significant opportunities for American exports as part of their economic growth and integration into the world economies. With that in mind, AMCHAM Thailand and the U.S. Commercial Service Bangkok arranged a special event \u201cProducts and Services in the Cambodian and Lao economies\u201d. This event was held on March 15th<\/sup> at the Conrad Hotel for members to hear more about the business opportunities in Cambodia and Laos directly from the American Ambassadors from both countries. Included in this half day conference was a featured panel of noted speakers from each nation to provide overviews of the Legal, Tax and Security issues. These relevant issues facing American companies when planning to bring their product or service to these emerging markets is a vital topic and the attendees were enthusiastic to know more.<\/p>\n

Numerous companies were in attendance to hear various speakers throughout the day relay critical economic information to potential companies who sell American products and services.<\/p>\n

What made part of this event so successful was the ability for a select number of AMCHAM members to speak privately with both American Ambassadors who were on hand for the event. Ambassador William Heidt, from the U.S. Embassy Cambodia and Ambassador Rena Bitter, from the U.S. Embassy Laos held private meetings with business leaders including RWT and answered questions to topics that were more specific to each company\u2019s business needs. Included in these meetings, the foreign service and commerce department were on hand to express how the environment in their respective countries would help promote such products and services.<\/p>\n
