REUTERS/Athit Perawongmetha/File Photo BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand's exports rose a smaller-than-expected 8.93% in August from a year earlier, commerce ministry data showed on Friday. That compares with a forecast for a rise of 13.5% in August in a Reuters poll and after July's 20.27% increase. Earlier this week, Commerce Minister Jurin Laksanawisit said coronavirus restrictions had affected manufacturing and logistics.
