Greek expatriate and entrepreneur Vasilis Stergiou, speaking from Phuket, Thailand, joined Voice of Greece and the show “Our Global Voice” with Dimitris Kontogiannis to discuss the country’s economic challenges, the high cost of living, and his impressions from a recent trip to Laos, where China’s influence is steadily growing.
Mr. Stergiou also described the situation following the powerful earthquakes that struck Thailand a few months ago, focusing on the financial impact on the capital, Bangkok, and the recurring issue of air pollution. He spoke about the Greek community in Thailand and addressed the widespread misinformation surrounding the supposedly low cost of living in Southeast Asia.
