Mr Kasemsit Pathomsak, the President & Chief Executive of Merchant Partners Securities Ltd, gave us a talk at the luncheon immediately after the Council's 2006 Annual General Meeting on 15 September. Mr Pathomsak impressed our members and guests with a presentation on "The Current Thai Political Situation and its Effect on Stock Exchange of Thailand Investors". He presented an in-depth analysis on the macro & micro atmosphere in Thailand and also discussed the likely future trends of the economic situations in Thailand. The attendants found the presentation interesting and useful.
