BANGKOK, May 30, 2025 — Thailand witnessed a further decline in private consumption in April 2025, according to newly released data. The consumption rate dropped to -1.5% from a previous -0.5% recorded in March 2025, signaling a notable month-over-month decrease.
The figures, updated on May 30, reflect a significant dip in consumer spending, possibly indicating distressing economic conditions or shifting consumer confidence. The -1.5% figure not only highlights current economic challenges but also suggests the potential for a more extended slowdown in Thailand’s market activities if the trend continues.
Economic analysts are likely to scrutinize these figures closely to assess the underlying causes and potential impacts on the broader economic landscape as they seek strategies to stimulate consumer demand and stabilize public confidence in the months ahead.
