Thailand economy needs 'stability' as GDP figures due

Thailand needs stability to help its economy which has been caught up in the prolonged political crisis.

That is the view from David Kuo, chief executive at The Motley Fool Singapore.

On Asia Business Report with Sharanjit Leyl, Mr Kuo shared his analysis on the Southeast Asian nation as the Thai government is due to release first-quarter growth numbers.

Many are looking to the gross domestic product (GDP) figure as a gauge of how the ongoing crisis is affecting businesses and investors in Thailand.
