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. 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 recession severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing double-digit drops. In late 2011 Thailand's recovery was interrupted by historic flooding in the industrial areas in Bangkok and its five surrounding provinces, crippling the manufacturing sector. The government 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 following seven years.

Note:

On  May  5,  2012,  the blast  occurred  at  3.20 p.m.  at  a  production  unit  of  BST.  The  accident  took  place  while  workers  were  cleaning  up  the  production  line  with  toluene,  and  had  resulted  about  1.5-1.7  billion  baht  in  damage.   12  people  were killed  and  129  wounded  in  this  accident  which nine  were killed  in  the  explosion  at  the  factory,  the  other  three  died  at  hospital.  In  July  2012,  the  subject  started  to  renovate  its  machinery  and  related  equipment,  and  its  production  was  re-started  in  2013.

 

COMMENT

The  Company  is  the  largest  producer of  mixedC4 products  in  the  Southeast Asian Region.  BST  debuted commercial  operations  in 1995 and  expanded  its  production capacity in 1998 to  correspond to  the  increasing demand  in petrochemical  industry.


The Company’s products  include  Butadiene, Butene-1,  MTBE and C4  Raffinates. These products  are  major  raw  materials  of  such  downstream  petrochemical  industry  as  the manufacturing  of  synthetic  rubbers  and  plastic  resins,  which  are essential  parts  of  our daily  life  in  the  form  of  medical devices,  food  containers,  tires,  shoes,  auto parts, electric  appliances,  sports  equipment  and  etc.

 

Due  to  the  incident  in  July  2012,  the  subject  had  been  forced  to stop  its  production  temporarily,  therefore  the  subject  ended  the  year  with  negative  outcome.  

 

However,  the  subject  anticipated  to  continue  a  strong  and  stable   business.  

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The  capital  was  initially registered at  Bht. 1,000,000  divided  into 10,000  shares  of  Bht.  100  each.

 

The  capital  was  increased  later  as  follows:

 

            Bht.      250,000,000   on  November  1,  1996

            Bht.   1,500,000,000   on  July  16,  1998

            Bht.   1,800,000,000   on  December  11,  1998

            Bht.   2,100,000,000   on  November  22,  1999

 

On  September  27,  2004,  the  capital  was  decreased  to Bht.  525,000,000  divided  into  21,000,000  shares  of  Bht.  25  each  with  fully  paid.
