BOT Governor Prasarn Trairatworakul said that Thailand’s exports are currently not impacted by the EU’s response to the coup, as the bloc did not boycott Thai goods. The union has earlier stated that measures taken by it are not sanctions.
He elaborated that if the EU intends to impose sanctions against Thailand, only a number of sectors will be affected. Thailand’s total exports to the region are not considered as high as those exported to other markets.
Thailand’s reputation has also suffered from accusations of slavery in the fishing industry.
Private and public sectors have been clarifying any misconceptions to the international community to prevent Thai products from being tarnished by the human trafficking allegations.-VNA
