THAILAND - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

With a relatively well-developed infrastructure, a free-enterprise economy, and generally pro-investment policies, Thailand is highly dependent on international trade, with exports accounting for about two-thirds of GDP. Thailand’s exports include electronics, agricultural commodities, automobiles and parts, and processed foods. The industry and service sectors produce about 90% of GDP. The agricultural sector, comprised mostly of small-scale farms, contributes only 10% of GDP but employs about one-third of the labor force. Thailand has attracted an estimated 3.0-4.5 million migrant workers, mostly from neighboring countries.

 

Over the last few decades, Thailand has sustained strong growth and has reduced poverty substantially. In 2013, the Thai Government implemented a nationwide 300 baht (roughly $10) per day minimum wage policy and deployed new tax reforms designed to lower rates on middle-income earners.

 

Growth has slowed in the last few years, however, due to domestic political turmoil and sluggish global demand. Nevertheless, Thailand’s economic fundamentals are sound, with low inflation, low unemployment, and reasonable public and external debt levels. Tourism and government spending - mostly on infrastructure and short-term stimulus measures – have helped to boost the economy, and The Bank of Thailand has been supportive, with several interest rate reductions.

 

Over the longer-term, Thailand faces labor shortages, and domestic debt levels, political uncertainty, and an aging population pose risks to growth.

COMMENT

 

The  subject’s  operating  performance  in  2016  was  moderately  fair  with  a  slightly  increase  in  sales  revenues  but  a  decrease  in  net  profit  comparing  to  the  previous  year.   Generally,  Thailand  has  continually  been  affected  from  the  industrial  slowdown  which  had  resulted  to  slow  consumption  of  modified  starch. 

 

However,  in  the future the  company  still  believes   in  its  potential  for   growth  in  food  and  beverage  business  with  high  growth  rate  and  in  a  good  trend.  The  company  is  also  developing  operation  system  to  be  modern  and   efficiency  in  order  to have  the  company’s  edge in  the  competition.
