Thai exports are rebounding but huge trade deficit with China poses a threat
I know many Thais that will buy cheap in the short term rather than buy quality in the long term. They would buy something for 500 baht that last 6 months and buy the same product again for the same price Rather than pay 800 baht for something that would last longer.

Thai exports are rebounding but huge trade deficit with China poses a threat
Thai imports from China will always outnumber exports. Many Thais will buy products from China, put on a mark-up and sell domestically for a profit. Thais have difficulty producing goods at affordable prices and deliver on time.

Maybe Thailand should follow Korea and be more selective of expats/tourists
Thailands tourism and it's associated service industry is inextricably linked to bolstering the GDP of the country. Policy allows pretty much any short term visitor in to spend thousands of baht, and deal with any fall-out later. Other countries such as Korea for their own reasons choose to be more selective on who comes in.

Thai government seeks to mandate graphic warnings on alcohol products
While I don't like draconian measures that make it a "nanny state" smoking in particular tobacco and the abuse of alcohol have been clinically proven to damage ones health, leading to life threatening sickness and death.
