Total Thai export in December is expected to post a lower contraction rate than November, which stood at minus 7.7 per cent from the previous month (October), said Pornpen Sodsrichai, Bank of Thailand's Director, Economic Analysis Office, on Monday (December 30).

 

Value of Thai export has declined 3.4 per cent year on year over the past 11 months.

 

The central bank expected the Thai economy to grow 2.5 per cent this year.

 

Next year, it estimated an economic expansion of 2.8 per cent, based on an assumption that export will grow 0.5 per cent in line with an expected improvement of the global economy.

Actually I can believe this. Most factories that are shutting down in Thailand now will be trying to offload as much stock as possible

Judging by other articles, I assume this report must have been written by a graduate from the TAT School of Optimism.

I don't ! 

I detest pure, unadulterated BS.

 

But I am reasonably sure that you are just exercising sarcasm (emoji omitted).

Meanwhile, China, Vietnam and even Cambodia will enjoy record exports, as they laugh and pity Thailand.  Too bad the regime took the ChiCom bait—hook, line and sinker.

If exports contract more slowly, the government will hail that as an improvement.
