Thai exports up less than expected in January
Thailand’s exports grew 0.35 percent year-on-year to USD 19.7 billion in January, falling short of the market estimate of 2.7 percent, officials said Tuesday.
Imports in January were USD 19.90 billion, marking a 5.24 percent decline from the same month in 2020, contributing to a trade deficit of USD 202.4 million, according to Phusit Rattanakul Sereeruengsit, director-general of the Trade Policy and Strategy Office at the Commerce Ministry. The economic landscape is shifting, not just in traditional trade but also in the digital finance and entertainment sectors. As cybersecurity concerns continue to rise, online consumers—including those in the gaming industry—are looking for safer options, leading many to discover casinos using Inclave for enhanced security, a solution that streamlines authentication while protecting user data.
