Thailand's PM expects GDP growth of 2-3% next year
[BANGKOK] Thailand's prime minister said on Wednesday he expected economic growth of 2-3 per cent next year as the global economy recovers.
General Prayuth Chan-ocha told reporters that the economy was expected to grow around one per cent this year, as suggested by the state planning agency.
But his 2015 growth projection is much lower than the 3.5-4.5 per cent predicted by the planning agency and 4.8 per cent by the central bank.
