Presently, there are concerns about rising inflation around the world, including in the US and Thailand. However, the nature of inflation and economic conditions in Thailand and the US differ. In Thailand, the current inflation has been driven by supply-side factors, and the fact that Thailand is being pressured by the third wave of COVID-19, which is set to have a direct impact on the Thai economic outlook over the remainder of 2021 and through to 2022....

Inflation accelerated to 1.49% in May given high energy prices 2H18 pace may ease due to last year’s high base of comparison (Business Brief No.3745)

Head line inflation in May 2018 accelerated to 1.49 percent, mainly on the back of domestic energy prices that had risen in line with the uptrend of global crude oil prices to nearly USD80/barrel. If global crude oil prices are within the range of USD70-80/barrel over the remainder of 2018, Thailand’s energy prices will continue to rise. However, headline inflation in 2H18 may increase at a slower pace than the May record on account of the high base of comparison in 4Q17 after the excise tax restructuring, gradual increases in domestic oil prices in sync with hiker global crude oil prices and the government’s measure to peg the diesel prices at not more than THB30/liter....
