NONTHABURI - Britain, New Zealand and the Russia-led Eurasian Economic Union are seeking deeper trade ties with Asean, as the 10-member bloc holds its 35th Summit just outside Bangkok.
"This business summit as a part of Asean is an extremely important event for the UK because as we either prepare or about to leave the European Union, our interconnectivity around the world is going to change," said the Duke of York. The Brexit deadline was missed for the second time on Oct 31 as MPs failed to pass the new deal into law. The EU last week agreed to extend the deadline to Jan 31, 2020.
He also called for joint efforts with Asean to tackle monopolies by high-tech companies to allow a"healthy competition and introduction of new promising ideas".
