Thai GDP on tap

Consensus and expectation are for a 6.0% drop in output which translates to 8.0% year-on-year growth.

DBS Group Research said, “The breakdown of 2Q GDP should point to resilience in consumption and exports as opposed to growth driven by temporary/technical factors such as inventories. With consumption and exports holding up, investment too should continue to recover and support the economy. From an external perspective, we also expect no double-dip in China and the US, the two major engines of global growth, and drivers of Thai export growth. All considered, our forecast for 2010 GDP remains at 8%, above consensus of 6.5%.”

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.
