BANGKOK, Dec 12 -- Consumer confidence in Thailand has gained significantly as seen by advance bookings for new car purchases during the ongoing 27th Thailand International Motor Expo 2010, beating last year’s record, said Kwanchai Papatpong, organising chairman of the Expo, on Sunday.
Mr Kwanchai said advance booking for car purchases during the first 11 days of Expo 2010 stood at 27,058 units, surpassing last year’s record which stood at 25,220 units.
Advance booking for cars during the final day today will be known at about 10.30pm but is expected to reach 30,000 units with more than Bt23 billion changing hands, he said.
By Saturday or the first 11 days of the Expo, booking for Toyota cars came first with 6,806 units, followed by Honda with 3,268 units and Isuzu with 2,398 units.
Buying cars has received much popular attention as the public pays more confidence in the Thai economy on belief that both the economic and political problems have returned to normal. (MCOT online news)
