Thailand's import growth forecast at 15.7% yoy

This is due to the expansion still evidenced in the domestic economy, says OCBC.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

It is interesting to closely monitor the June trade data due this week, as it remains questionable if Thai can continue to buck the regional trend by posting relatively strong export figures.

As it is, we forecast import growth to remain rather robust at 15.7% yoy, bolstered by the expansion still evidenced in the domestic economy.

Some easing in terms of exports growth may be seen for June, with our forecast penciling a 6.8% yoy expansion but still quite decent considering the recent numbers out of the region.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
