NAKHON RATCHASIMA, 1 August 2010 (NNT) – A series of bomb explosions in Bangkok might negatively affect the Thai economy despite the current global economic recovery, said former Deputy Prime Minister and Ruam Chart Pattana Party core leader, Suwat Liptapanlop.

According to Mr Suwat, the Thai economic condition has improved after the prolonged rallies of the United Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) ended a few months ago. Businesses have resumed while the tourism climate has become more active with more foreign visitors.

Nevertheless, the former Deputy Prime Minister admitted that the two recent bomb blasts in Bangkok might damage the improving confidence since it signals further unrest in the kingdom while Thai people’s feeling could be badly affected.
