Thailand protests may cast cloud over economic growth

Thailand's economy posted slower growth in the final quarter of 2013, hit by the effects of a long-running political protest aimed at toppling the government.

Government data showed gross domestic product in the three months to December rose by 0.6%, compared to 2.7% in the previous quarter.

South East Asia's second largest economy has proven resilient following natural disasters and anti-government protests in the past.

But the latest political turmoil, which began last November, has made many economists warn that Thailand's outlook is at risk. Timothy McDonald reports.
