Thailand Livestock Report

Thailand Livestock Report
Economic Overview of Thailand 2008
The Thai economy remained resilient through the first three quarters of this year,
amidst the sharp rise in food and fuel prices. In the first three quarters of the year, real
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) expanded by 5.1 percent year-on-year, compared to
4.6 percent in the same period of 2007. This was led by the robust export growth of 25
percent year-on-year in US dollar terms and 9 percent in real terms, not withstanding
the continuous appreciation of the baht. Private consumption and investment also grew
by more than they did in 2007, despite the sharp increase in food and fuel prices. On
the other hand, public consumption and investments in real terms have contracted in
the first three quarters as a result of slow disbursement rates amidst political instability
and slow project completion as raw material prices rose sharply. Real GDP growth in
2008 is 2.6 percent as the global economic slowdown and domestic political unrest
weigh upon growth in the last quarter. Growth in the last quarter drops sharply to less
than 1 percent year-on-year as exports of goods are negatively affected by the
deceleration in demand of Thailand's major export markets. Exports of services, of
which more than half are tourism receipts, have also been severely affected by the
political unrest since October. As a result, manufacturing and services growth in the
last quarter of this year will slow down considerably. Layoffs and work hour reduction,
particularly in the manufacturing sector, have also started to rise, while private
investment slows. As job security and income growth uncertainties increase, consumer
confidence is falling and household consumption growth has shown clear signs of a
deceleration. These trends will extend into Year 2009 as the global economy continues
to slow.
