BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): Thailand will likely achieve its goal of exporting 7.5 million tonnes of rice this year, and may even go beyond the target, the Department of Foreign Trade (DFT) said.
Ronnarong Phoolpipat, the department’s director-general, said on Friday (Dec 16) that exporters have sought to ship out up to 8.58 million tonnes of rice this year, adding that the baht's exchange rate has made prices very competitive.
