    PM fails to put oath debate to bed

    News, Veera Prateepchaikul, Published on 23/09/2019

    » The Sept 18 parliamentary debate against Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha over his incomplete reciting of the oath of office is over. But the controversy lingers on as the opposition has refused to let go of the matter. This is because the prime minister did not himself clarify why he omitted to recite an important part of the oath as stipulated in the constitution but assigned his top legal expert, Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam, to act on his behalf.

    Are Thai businesses prepared for a downturn?

    News, Published on 23/09/2019

    » Despite a long run of strong economic growth in Thailand and Southeast Asia, the next global recession will have serious effects here. It's a turbulent world, and Thailand still relies on exports to China, the US, Europe and elsewhere, as well as capital flows from abroad. True, Thailand weathered the global financial crisis a decade ago much better than many others did, but it still was hit hard, with GDP growth dropping from 5% in 2006 to negative 1% in 2009. Moreover, many of the traits that cushioned Thailand then offer less of a buffer today.
