Thai industries confidence drops for first time in 6 months
Thailand's industries sentiment dropped in February for the first time in six months, dented by a spike in COVID-19 infections, surging oil prices and the impacts of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, an industries group said on Thursday.
Once you have xo slot caught the spot here in the early days when the prize hasn't been released, let us lower the bet, and when we don't win the game for about 5 - 6 eyes after that, add bet.
The Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) said its industries sentiment index fell to 86.7 in February from 88.0 in the previous month.
Industries were worried about every factor in the FTI's survey, including the global and domestic economies and volatile exchange rates, FTI Chairman Supant Mongkolsuthree told a news conference.
The Ukraine crisis has had a direct and indirect impact, particularly on the prices of energy and raw materials, he said.
"Many factories are having problems on how to reduce costs. They may likely cut jobs and bring in technology," Supant said.
The FTI urged the government to further relax travel restrictions, introduce additional measures and continue to support energy prices by further cutting excise taxes.
"We are asking if the government will offer any package to help because industries now don't have a lot of stocks," FTI vice chairman Kriengkrai Thiennukul said.
