On 25 September 2016, the Office of Thai Trade Competition Commission (“OTCC”) arranged a seminar among the state agencies, the judicial authorities and the enforcement authorities to create a clearer path to the future enforcement of Thailand’s competition law.
On 26 September 2016, the OTCC also held a public seminar, “Independent Competition Authorities: A Key to Success of Competition Policy and Law Enforcement”, where guest speakers from the Australian, Japanese, Singaporean and Indonesian competition authorities gathered to share their stories about enforcement policies and procedures, the legal framework of penalties and remedies in those jurisdictions, the factors to be taken into account for enforcement of competition law and case studies. The OTCC aims to take these as guidelines to build a more efficient and effective competition law regime in Thailand.
