Thailand Beyond the Crisis

More about the book

Focusing on Thailand's economic landscape, the book examines the aftermath of the Asian economic crisis that originated in the country, disrupting a decade of growth. It analyzes the policy missteps of both the Thai government and the IMF that precipitated the collapse. The author highlights the resulting challenges, such as rising poverty levels and a backlog of non-performing loans that hindered the banking system, ultimately delaying the nation's recovery efforts.
