The World Bank anticipates that the Thai economy this year will see an overall 4% growth, thanks to stimulus measures from the government. It also expects the Thai economy to see 4.7% growth in 2022, despite current challenges from the new wave of COVID-19 infections. Additionally, the World Bank said it would continue to monitor the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccine in Thailand, which should give the economy a positive push if done in a timely manner, as well as reducing the effects from the pandemic on the overall employment situation.
