The Learnin' Begins

Monday started early, too early for some. LOL. We were fortunate to meet with Steve Carlisle, President of General Motors ASEAN operations. Sounds like they're working hard to carve themselves a bigger piece of this market, and he was a great host for us. We learned a lot, and he was extremely gracious with his time.

Next, an attache from the US embassy visited us, and we had another great meeting. Thailand is a great country, and there's a lot of opportunity for all you entrepreneurial types. There are a lot of expatriates living there from the US, too.

It was interesting to learn more about how the Thai government protects Thai businesses by requiring certain percentages of thai ownership.

more later....
