Thailand's economy remains strong, despite weaker shipments, though the weaker baht currency will be supportive of exports this year, said the Finance Minister. The exchange rate is at a good level and with the current figure, exports may not be negative or just slightly negative for the full year. The baht has weakened 0.3% against the United States dollar so far this year. In the January-April period, the value of exports, a key driver of Thai growth, declined 5.2% from a year earlier, customs data showed. (ICE BANGKOK)
