FTI warns virus spread threatens exports
The ongoing Covid-19 outbreak is threatening to hinder the export sector from achieving its 8%-10% growth target as more factories are hamstrung by rising infections, says the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI).
Kriengkrai Thiennukul, vice-chairman of the FTI, said disease transmission is affecting production capacity and will eventually mar plans to export goods.
Some production lines have stopped and manufacturers are forced to delay product delivery, he said.
