"Thailand Infrastructure Report Q1 2016" is now available at Fast Market Research

Political risks will remain a hindrance to construction activity in Thailand over the long term following the military government's rejection of the draft constitution, which underscores the country's uncertain political outlook. With the junta expected to remain in power until 2017, large - scale public transport infrastructure projects are expected to benefit, driving construction activity over the near term.

Forecast and Latest Updates

We forecast Thailand's construction register real growth of 14.8% and 4.3% in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The expected growth surge in 2015 is largely owing to low base effects from 2014.

Long-term political risk will weigh on private construction activity, with the military government remaining in power until at least 2017 at the earliest following the rejection of the draft constitution on September 6 by the National Reform Council.

Near-term political stability - considering that the junta will remain in power until 2017 - will bode well for the military government's large scale transport infrastructure development plans, a case in point being the Thailand-China Railway project which has gained traction over the past months.
