Praphad Photiworakhun, vice chairman of the Federation of Thai Industries, proposed four measures to slash imports. They are reducing imported raw materials by at least 10% or THB68.9 billion, cutting down on imported luxury items by THB20 billion from THB30 billion and reducing the import of capital goods by state enterprises by half, to THB30 billion. A serious campaign to encourage people to buy more Thai products should also be launched. |
