Slower Decline In Merchandise Exports As Industrial Shipments Recover Thailand’s customs merchandise exports decline moderated to 5.5% y-o-y in September, recovering slightly from its 6.7% drop in August. The improvement was driven by industrial exports, which fell at a slower rate of 1.9% y-o-y, following a 3.2% slip the month before. Meanwhile, agricultural exports worsened after dropping 9.9% y-o-y, compared -8.0% in August and mitigated some of the upside. Economist:  Ng Kee Chou  | +603 9280 2179
