Nikkei Asia

To obtain a liquor license, they must produce at least 100,000 liters of beer per year and have at least 10 million baht ($302,000) in capital - conditions that cemented a duopoly for the country's two largest drinks companies, Boon Rawd and ThaiBev -- makers of Singha and Chang beer, respectively.04.10.2024 9:46Bruce Springsteen unterstützt Kamala Harris und Tim Walz US-Musiker Bruce Springsteen erreicht mit seinen Songs Millionen von Menschen auf der ganzen Welt.
