Linked Reviews
Corporate and M&A (asialaw)

Work highlights 

Representing True Corporation in ongoing administrative proceedings relating to its landmark $8.6 billion merger with Total Access Communication, which completed in February 2023 to create Thailand's largest telecommunications operator. The matter involves defending challenges brought by consumer groups before the Central Administrative Court against the merger clearance granted by the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission. This precedent-setting case represents one of southeast Asia's largest telecommunications mergers and will significantly shape Thailand's regulatory framework for future consolidations in regulated industries. 

Advised Synagistics on Hong Kong's first de-SPAC transaction, a HK$4 billion ($511 million) business combination with HK Acquisition Corporation listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong's Main Board. The complex cross-border transaction required coordinated legal advice across five jurisdictions including Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia. This landmark deal established a significant precedent for Hong Kong's SPAC market while demonstrating the increasing sophistication of Southeast Asian capital markets integration. 

Advised Actavis Holding Asia on the $35 million divestiture of its 100% stake in Teva Pharma Thailand to Lotus Pharmaceuticals, Taiwan's largest listed pharmaceutical company by revenue. The transaction involved comprehensive legal support across multiple jurisdictions including the Netherlands, Taiwan and Thailand. The deal marks Lotus Pharmaceuticals' strategic expansion in Southeast Asia, particularly strengthening its presence in ophthalmology, respiratory, immunology and oncology sectors.
