Conflicts in the Middle East have taken a toll on the Thai economy

Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly the conflict between Israel and Hamas, have led to rising oil prices and shipping disruptions, posing a threat to the Thai economy. The Energy Ministry is preparing for potential impacts, including inflation and higher global interest rates. Thailand, as a major oil importer, faces challenges from increased crude oil prices, which have surged by 4.8% recently. Exporters are concerned about rising freight rates and potential shipping delays, while the tourism sector monitors the situation closely, though tourists remain largely unfazed.
