Thai consumer confidence down for second straight month in November

It dropped 3.1% YoY to 72.3.

Thai consumer confidence slid again in November, amidst slow domestic and global economic recoveries and low commodity prices.

Maybank KimEng notes that consumer confidence in Nov fell 3.1% YoY and 1.1% MoM to 72.3. CCI for willingness to buy new cars has the highest percentage of contraction followed by willingness to buy new houses signaling the still weak consumption trend.

The confidence index on job, income & economic situation also contracted.

"Flooding in the southern region, which has affected crop production & tourism as well as low commodity prices, is perceived have negative impact on purchasing power," said MayBank KimEng.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
