PESTLE Insights of the Thailand Macroeconomic Outlook Report
Political Landscape: In August 2022, Thailand and Cambodia signed a memorandum of understanding on logistics to establish a cooperation framework. This is expected to improve the competitiveness of Southeast Asia’s apparel supply chain and broaden prospects for buyers in the region. However, poor government indicators, high levels of corruption, and terrorism threats are a few challenges that the country needs to address for better growth.
Economic Landscape: The tourism sector of the country is one of the key contributors to the economy. According to the Heritage Foundation, Index of Economic Freedom (2022), Thailand secured 70th rank among 184 nations.
Social Landscape: The nation has been improving its healthcare landscape over the past decade. As a result, life expectancy has gradually improved. Moreover, the country is also increasing its expenditure to improve the healthcare sector.
Technological Landscape: According to Portulans Institute and STL Technologies, Network Readiness Index (2021), Thailand was ranked 54th out of 130 nations. Moreover, the country secured the first rank on GERD financed by business enterprise and e-commerce legislation. However, the increasing cyberattacks in Thailand and the lack of data protection might hamper the market growth.
Legal Landscape: On June 1, 2022, Thailand’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) entered into force. The PDPA applies to both entities in Thailand and abroad that process personal data for the provision of products or services in Thailand. According to the law, data controllers and processors need to have a valid legal basis for processing personal data, and breaches may result in heavy fines.
Environmental Landscape: In January 2022, Marubeni Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding with a Thailand-based Mitr Phol Group. This MoU will enhance bio-based product businesses and renewable energy in Thailand.
