Commerce Ministry to boost trade in 3 months

BANGKOK, 9 October 2014 (NNT)-The Ministry of Commerce is planning to boost international trade and investments in Thailand within 3 months. The accelerated effort is said to pave the way for the smooth transition into the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) next year.

Commerce Minister General Chatchai Sarikalya said, following the government’s policy, the plan is focused on removing trade obstacles by amending related laws and maintaining commodity prices. It will also be considered a present at the year’s end for Thai consumers.

The Ministry of Commerce is currently in the process of drafting a stimulus plan for an export sector. Heads of the commercial affairs offices at Thai embassies across the globe will be invited to a meeting to share their views on the market demand in their respective countries. The meeting will be held from October 18-20, 2014.

It would be nice if the spouters of this excrement is charged with malfeasance on the non-acompishment of these lofty pronouncements. The directors of TAT would be the first in line for malfeasance charges.

I would have thought that these clowns at the Commerce Ministry would be working full time on increasing trade......but...maybe they just sit around for most of the time and each 3 months release a stupid statement to at least show everyone that they're concerned.....inactive posts to most of them!

Wooo again very sure of themselves. In 3 month not a year of 5. We will hear a new news again which never reference the old number they claimed

in 3 months? Has Chalerm been transferred to this department???

Lower the prices will stimulate exports or a lower Baht?

The Commerce Ministry has everything under control....problems are no problem.
