Earthquake in Japan

Thailand's exports will slow down, and Thailand will strengthen its sales to China and other ASEAN countries. Last year, the sunrise of the Republic of China amounted to US $20 billion 400 million. If Japan's situation is normal, the export to Japan this year should grow to 20% US $24 billion.

On the other hand, Sompop, President of Thailand Panyapiwat science and Technology Institute, warned Japan's industry.

Serious disaster

It may affect the production and supply chain of Thailand's electronics industry and auto industry imported from Japan, but for Thailand's food, textile, clothing and building materials industry, this year is a good opportunity to open up the Japanese market.
