The report-makers are CLSA - investment bankers. What was the purpose of the report if they are investment bankers?

Found it interesting. Doesn't cover all Thailand, but looks representative of Mi-So Bangkok.

I used it to show my wife how well she is doing with me as a husband. I also reminded her that one of the key things we were behind on is number of children. We only have one at the moment, and the average is 1.8. So there's a little work o be done their.

BTW Might get more traffic on the post if you posted some of the highlights.

Very common for financial institutions to collate this sort of analysis.

How are they defining "middle class"?

They have households with monthly income <5,000 baht and >35K baht in the survery, but no definition of limits?
