Scenario

Amy has applied trademark for her brand in Malaysia and now she can put ® on her logo. She is interested to set up business at Thailand too, she put the ® on her Thailand business too since the origin is from Malaysia.
Is that true?

Mythbusted.

The trademark application she did is only for Malaysia brand. If she needs to set up business overseas, she needs to apply trademark from the local authority to protect her brand.
