IAS Advisory co-founder Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul was greatly honoured to give an address as part of the special seminar “Personal data privacy compliance when carrying out business in Lao PDR,” which took place on Thursday 26th September at DoubleTree by Hilton Vientiane in Lao PDR.

The event was organised by the Thai Business Association of Lao PDR (TBAL), Thailand’s Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP), and the Royal Thai Embassy in Vientiane, Lao PDR.

Distinguished chairpersons of the seminar included H E Ms Morakot Sriswasdi (Ambassador of the Kingdom of Thailand to Lao PDR), Mr Kawin Viriyapanich (Minister-Counsellor (Commercial), Royal Thai Embassy, Vientiane, Lao PDR), and Mr Thamnong Pholthongmak (TBAL President).

In his address, Anuwat detailed how Thailand’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) is affecting the way Thai companies are doing business, its impact on international transactions, and how the PDPA applies when conducting business operations in Lao PDR.

Thank you to the organisers for the invitation to join and to all distinguished guests and attendees. It was an honour to be asked to share my experiences and perspectives as part of such a successful seminar and business network. It was a great opportunity to exchange ideas and for everybody to learn and connect with other experts in the industry. I was delighted to be able to contribute. Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul co-founding partner
