Thai exports may drop 7 per cent as global trade improves

BANGKOK (Xinhua): The Thai National Shippers' Council said in a press briefing on Tuesday (Nov 3) that Thailand's exports may drop by only 7 per cent this year, an improvement compared with the 8 to 10 per cent drop earlier forecasted.

Thai exports have slightly improved against the backdrop of a brighter global trade scenario, said the council's chairperson Ghanyapad Tantipipatpong.
