Thailand plans more stimulus measures this month


BANGKOK: Thailand plans to introduce more stimulus measures later this month, a new deputy prime minister said on Monday, as the economy contracted sharply in the previous quarter due to the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic.

The measures will help all groups hit by the crisis, Supattanapong Punmeechaow told a briefing after a meeting with new Finance Minister Predee Daochai and officials. Supattanapong is also energy minister and will oversee the government's economic agencies.
