THAILAND - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

With a well-developed infrastructure, a free-enterprise economy, generally pro-investment policies, and strong export industries, Thailand achieved steady growth due largely to industrial and agriculture exports - mostly electronics, agricultural commodities, automobiles and parts, and processed foods. Thailand is trying to maintain growth by encouraging domestic consumption and public investment to offset weak exports in 2012. Unemployment, at less than 1% of the labor force, stands as one of the lowest levels in the world, which puts upward pressure on wages in some industries. Thailand also attracts nearly 2.5 million migrant workers from neighboring countries. The Thai government is implementing a nation-wide 300 baht ($10) per day minimum wage policy and deploying new tax reforms designed to lower rates on middle-income earners. The Thai economy has weathered internal and external economic shocks in recent years. The global economic severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing double-digit drops. In 2009, the economy contracted 2.3%. However, in 2010, Thailand's economy expanded 7.8%, its fastest pace since 1995, as exports rebounded. In late 2011 growth was interrupted by historic flooding in the industrial areas in Bangkok and its five surrounding provinces, crippling the manufacturing sector. Industry recovered from the second quarter of 2012 onward with GDP growth at 5.5% in 2012. The government has approved flood mitigation projects worth $11.7 billion, which were started in 2012, to prevent similar economic damage, and an additional $75 billion for infrastructure over the next seven years with a plan to start in 2013.

COMMENT

 

BASF is the world’s leading chemical company  with  nearly  385 production sites worldwide that  serve customers and partners in almost all countries of the world.

 

Over  four decades of  BASF’s presence  in Thai chemical industry, the name BASF has been  entrusted as reliable  quality products  that enhance and improve the country’s  industrial  sector  and  quality of  life.

 

The subject has  long  been  in  the  market  because  of  its reputation  on   products  quality,  marketing  and  sales  strategy  as  well  as  well  established a strong fundamental  management. However,  after  the floods  swept  through  many  industries,  causing  damage  to  thousands  of  factories,  their  operations  have  been  totally  affected which   demand  of  chemicals would  also  decline.
