Myanmar coup to have “minimal” impact on Thai economy, government says
The Myanmar coup was expected to have minimal impact on the Thai economy, the government said Wednesday, but the investments in the Dawei Special Economic Zone will have to be put on hold for now.
The coup “should not be a problem” as cross-border trade, which was temporarily halted on Monday, had already resumed, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Labour Supattanapong Punmeechaow said after a meeting with Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha.
