Kasikorn Bank’s head of capital markets research believes domestic and foreign forces will keep the baht and global money markets unstable. CIMBT official says higher policy rate is related to global inflation. K Bank expects that if tourism increases at the end of the year, the baht may move back to 35 per dollar. The MPC is expected to raise the policy rate to 1.25 percent in November, boosting the baht. CIMBT hopes a strong tourism revival can save and rebuild Thailand’s economy, like many in the government and private sector. As more tourists come to the country, inflation should reduce as the economy stabilizes and GDP grows. CIMBT recently raised its projection for GDP growth by the end of the year from 3.1% to 3.2%. That would boost the baht and keep it near 37 baht to the dollar, but it’s a temporary fix; the baht will plummet in…
Indians and Australians have been among the top tourists to Phuket in recent months (120,000 from May to September) (around 60,000 visitors between May – September). Year after year, travelers are drawn to Phuket by the spectacle of “Masongs” (human receptacles for Taoist gods) cutting their cheeks with pointed objects and by the mouthwatering cuisine. The Taoist celebration, which blends vegan food and self-mortification, will take place from September 25 to October 4. Russian tourists, who in the years before the pandemic grew to be the island’s second-largest international source market, continue to be a source of lost revenue for Phuket. The tourism sector in Phuket is on the upswing as Thailand’s High Season approaches. According to Deputy Governor Pichet Panapong, Phuket has received four million domestic and foreign visitors so far in 2022, generating 66 billion baht for the local economy. International arrivals in Phuket are still just 40%…
Only 78 people have been infected by the BQ.1.1 variety, which was initially identified in the UK last month; nonetheless, those instances have already spread to ten different nations. The Public Health Ministry highlighted that populations who consistently receive vaccinations will have higher immunity to prevent any reappearance of the coronavirus and now advises a gap of around four months between each new vaccine booster. It is anticipated that the new, extremely contagious strain could proliferate swiftly and overtake the prevalent Covid variety in the world, the BA.5 strain. They also warned that the schedules for the next routine vaccinations can change if circumstances change, and the ministry is revising its estimates of how many vaccines to buy after initially projecting 80 million shots for the coming year. The destiny of the virus’ containment or spread in the upcoming months remains to be seen with Thailand gradually discontinuing vaccine passports…

It’s one of Thailand’s road safety initiatives. Schoolchildren and other residents in Phuket’s Wichit neighborhood received helmets on Wednesday.

More than half of Thailand’s 80,000 e-cigarette users are between 15 and 24, according to a 2013 poll. WHO called e-cigarettes “hazardous” and demanded tighter regulation to protect children and teens. Over 10,000 people have joined Right2Switch’s petition to preserve consumer rights. We ask Thailand to follow the evidence. Our nation continues to follow WHO’s erroneous advice, putting us in a small group. Vaping is safer than smoking and the best way to help people quit. Former smoker vaping saved my life. E-cigarettes should be legalized and regulated. 50,000 Thais die annually from smoking. Thailand’s harsh vaping prohibitions would increase smoking-related illnesses and deaths. It’s crazy that e-cigarettes are now widely supported in Thailand. The Coalition of Asia Pacific Tobacco Harm Reduction Advocates (CAPHRA) noted Asia’s progress toward safer nicotine products from tobacco-based cigarettes. Public health minister Anutin Charnvirakul said earlier this month that e-cigarette imports must be banned to…
