webfact Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 MR Pridiyathorn: World economy to rebound in 2 yearsBANGKOK, 11 March 2016 (NNT) – M.R. Pridiyathorn Devakula has advised the private sector to pay attention to technology-based industries, in order to prepare itself for a global economic rebound over the next two years.M.R. Pridiyathorn, who previously held office as deputy premier and served as Bank of Thailand governor, praised business operators for their ability to adjust to the volatile economy by capping their inventories and avoiding new debt. He commented that during this period, the business sector should turn to tech industries that could respond to global demand for innovation.The former deputy premier voiced approval of the government’s decision to offer financial aid to agriculturists affected by the price slump. However, he cautioned that the consumption-stimulating measures, including reduced property transfer fees and credit card spending, might lead to a rise in household debt.M.R. Pridiyathorn also speculated that the world economy might have difficulty picking up if global oil prices continued to fall.-- NNT 2016-03-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snig27 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Given his history of gross fiscal incompetence - several times - one should be VERY worried about the short term future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSJ Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 World economy may hit rock bottom in 2 years so a .01% improvement would validate what he says. Sometimes I crack myself up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MockingJay Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 This one, in comparison to the "last day mafia themselves turning in day" made my day! Packing up and going home now - muscle cramps from laughing... That guy has accumulated over 730 million THB in wealth according to wiki... Blabbering out such a hilarious "rebound in 2 years" prediction, while the world is on the bring of a total financial meltdown and perhaps even WW3, shows that he must have been lobotomized or something... Wow!...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pridiyathorn_Devakula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenixdoglover Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 This reminds me of a joke making the rounds when Alan Greenspan was Fed chairman in the US. Reporter: Mr. Greenspan, will the stock market go up or down? Greenspan: Yes, but not immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoilSpoil Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 The bubbly economy of China, real estate prices in Asian cities, the zero percent interest rate in Europe and volatile oil prices are writings on the wall (IMHO) that their won't be a recovery before we see a global collapse.
