The Thai baht was among the region's top-performing currency against the USD in 2019 as a result of the Kingdom's significant current account surplus, tourism revenue inflows and near-record foreign reserves. The Thai economy's growth forecast remains relatively lower than average. The beginning of the year 2020 for Thailand started with a delay in the passing of the national budget, and the daunting impact of COVID-19 outbreak in China that is now being felt through the region and threatening the growth prospect of the volatile global economy which is already facing the brunt of the US-China trade tension.
So what all these economic headwinds mean to Thailand and what's the outlook for the Thai economy in 2020?
