Marc Faber Reasonably Positive About the Future of Thailand

Marc Faber : "Thailand is unlikely to be a dynamic economy. It's not going to be like South Korea or Taiwan. In the long run, it could easily grow at 4-5 [per cent] per annum for the next 10-20 years unless the whole global economy collapses. "It's like in the US ... tension between the Democrats and the Republicans are very high ... they just can't agree on anything. In Thailand, I don't know ... the red shirts, the yellow shirts ... both have probably some good and bad points. There is still too much corruption," - in The Nation interview
