Thailand\nhas a population of around 70 million. It has a leading position even among those\nSoutheast Asian nations that are achieving remarkable growth. Also, as typified\nby the long-standing friendship between the Thai royal family and Japan\u2019s\nImperial family, the Thai people have very friendly feelings toward Japan.\nBangkok now has more expatriate Japanese residents than any other city, and the\nnumber of Japanese companies located there is also believed to be highest\nanywhere outside Japan. Thailand\u2019s Board of Investment also has a\ncarefully-crafted investment incentive program and Thailand occupies an\nimportant position as a foothold into Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In\nthis way, Thailand is continuing to attract attention from Japanese investors,\nbut this does not mean that the nation has completely opened its doors to\nforeign investors, including those from Japan. It places particularly stringent\nrestrictions on the service industry through the Foreign Business Act and other\nlegislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
