Thai unemployment rate dips in Q2 but virus curbs to hit jobs
Thailand’s unemployment rate in the second quarter dipped from a 12-year high in the previous three month, but restrictions to contain the country’s biggest coronavirus outbreak are likely to impact more jobs, the state planning agency said on Wednesday.
The Southeast Asian country’s latest outbreak that started in April has accounted for most of Thailand’s one million infections, prompting restrictions in Bangkok and several other provinces.
