BANGKOK, Sept. 11 (Xinhua) -- Thailand's consumer confidence plunged for a seventh successive month in August to its lowest rate in 32 months, driven by concerns over local political instability, border conflicts, and a slow economic recovery, a survey showed on Thursday.
According to a survey of 2,244 respondents conducted by the University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce, the consumer confidence index decreased to 50.1 last month from 51.7 in July as all components of the index dropped.
