BANGKOK, March 24 (Reuters) – Thailand’s February customs-cleared exports rose 9.9% from a year earlier, driven by electronics and electrical equipment, the commerce ministry said on Tuesday, slower than January and well below analyst expectations.
Exports, a key driver of the Thai economy, should maintain their growth this year, although shipments could slow in March due to higher fuel prices and transportation costs and the impacts of the Middle East war, ministry official Natiya Suchinda told a briefing.
