Inter-Club meets at the Hyatt Regency Hotel Sukhumvit Bangkok

With Bangkok’s vibrant expatriate communities, many international ladies groups from various countries have been established in the city for decades. On a regular basis, these non-profit organisations support each other for friendship and to support and raise funds for the local charities that each club sponsors. 

After over two years’ pandemic lockdown, Hong Kong Ladies’ Group hosted the Inter-Club meeting at Hyatt Regency Sukhumvit Bangkok on Soi 13. The International ladies groups touched base, presented each group’s latest update and charities projects. Networking was followed by an sumptuous luncheon. 

Those in attendance included American Women’s Club, Australia New Zealand Women’s Group, Bangkok Community Theatre, Brazilian Association in Thailand-BTCC Social, British Women’s Group, Golden Years, Hong Kong Ladies’ Group, Ikebana International Bangkok Chapter 177, Indian Women’s Club, International Women’s Club of Thailand, National Museum Volunteers, Soroptimist International of Bangkok, Soroptimist International Dusit and the United Nations Women’s Club.
