BANGKOK, April 5 (Reuters) - Thailand's economy is
expected to grow 3.0% to 3.5% this year, unchanged from a
previous forecast, as tourism rebounded but exports softened, a
leading joint business group said on Wednesday.
Exports are still expected to be flat or fall by 1% this
year, but the number of foreign tourist arrivals should reach
27-30 million this year, compared with 25-30 million predicted
earlier, said the group, which has representatives drawn from
industry, banking and commerce. The economy grew 2.6% in 2022.
