According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the business experts revealed that, despite the economic downturn, Thai customers still have the potential and demand to purchase goods and supplies despite the lack of foreign tourists due to closed international borders.

Regarding the possibility of future investment, the businessmen said that there are reportedly a number of foreign companies who are interested in investing in real estate businesses. The government is recommended to facilitate business operations to potentially drive the country’s economy, such as supporting real estate lending, tax measures, and the urban planning system.
