BANGKOK (Reuters) -Thailand will spend 18.5 billion baht ($572 million) on stimulus measures to support the economy as it braces for the impact of U.S. tariffs, and will compensate families of those who died in last month's border conflict, officials said on Tuesday.
The stimulus measures approved by cabinet are aimed at enhancing economic competitiveness and supporting student loans, Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat told reporters.
