One of the great things about Bangkok is its international element. Since most of the multinationals have offices in Thailand, you can meet plenty of expatriates from other countries. Clubs, associations and networking events are a great way to meet other people and make contacts and friends.
Rotary Clubs
Thailand has many Rotary Club chapters, but not all meetings are held in English. So if you don't speak Thai it's best to check beforehand. View www.rotary.org for a list of clubs in Thailand.
Foreign Correspondence Club of Thailand (FCCT)
Bangkok's FCCT is Southeast Asia's largest and oldest press club and offers a platform for open discussion on local, regional and international news and issues. And what many people don't know is you needn't be a journalist or correspondent to attend events or become a member! The FCCT is also a great place to enjoy a Western meal or drink after work. The Foreign Correspondence Club of Thailand is located at:
The Penthouse, Maneeya Center
518/5 Ploenchit Road
Bangkok 10330
Tel: +66 (0) 2 652 0580-1
It's conveniently located with easy access from BTS Station Chidlom. Validated parking is available for members and guests. For more information about the FCCT visit their website at www.fccthai.com
The Lighthouse Club
The Lighthouse Club is a social organisation that mainly caters to the expat engineering and construction community in Bangkok. The club's committee has established a full calendar of sports and social functions including get-togethers at the Bull's Head Pub, golf outings, speaker dinners and many more. For further information about club activities check their website at www.lighthousebkk.com
Chambers of Commerce
Most Chambers of Commerce organise various events which are good for socialising as well as relevant networking. For schedules of such events contact the respective chambers as listed above.
The European Young Professionals Group
The EYP group was set up to bring together Thai and European young professionals for business networking and social events. Their monthly networking events offer good opportunities to make both business and social contacts. To find out more, check their website at www.europeanyoungprofessionals.com
