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.
