Yet another disturbing turn of event in Thailand. The military coup in Thailand has affected business transaction. All the 21 of our sister companies in Thailand are unusually closed today due to uncertainties. Head office immediately issued an advisory travelling, prohibiting all business travelling to Thailand until further notice.
Let’s hope that peace be maintained and our counterparts in Thailand do not have to resolve to leave the country.
