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 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.

Thailand’s economy is recovering from slow growth during the years since the 2014 coup. 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, household debt levels, political uncertainty, and an aging population pose risks to growth.

COMMENT

 

The subject is one  of  the  world’s leading  producers of  raw  materials  for  nylon (Caprolactam) and  nylon  resin  as  well.  The  products  are  for  various  proposes.  Despite  a  slightly  decrease  in  sales or  service  income  as  of  March  31,  2017,  it  obtained  higher  net  profit  resulted  by  a  decrease  in  cost  of  goods  sold and  service  subsequently  which  accelerated  high profit margin.  Though slowdown  of  industrial  sector  has  a  negative  impact  to  the  subject’s  sales or  service   income,  its business  remains  promising  in  line  with  an  improvement  and  growth of  related industries.
