BANGKOK (Reuters) – Thailand’s exports and tourism, key drivers of growth, are expected to slow until early next year due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, a deputy prime minister said on Thursday.
The impact started to be felt in the first quarter, but “in the second quarter, the economy is clearly stagnating,” Somkid Jatusripitak told reporters.
