AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Gun Control Overhaul: Thailand’s PM Anutin Charnvirakul suspended new firearm purchase permits and ordered tighter nationwide controls after last week’s school shooting, including reviewing pending licenses, stopping renewals, inspecting gun dealers and ranges, and pushing harsher penalties. School Safety Push: The Cabinet approved a seven-point national school safety plan with weapon/drug screening at entry points, emergency drills with police, rights-and-safety centres at every school, and mental health support plus “safe rooms,” with assessments planned after the incident. Retail Savings Boost: Thailand launched a new government bond scheme aimed at retail investors with a low minimum ticket, as authorities try to encourage savings amid high household debt. Digital Economy Outlook: Thailand’s digital economy is forecast to hit 5.7 trillion baht in 2026, driven by AI-related exports and faster growth than overall GDP. Finance & Markets: The Government Pension Fund is leaning into AI and Thai equities, while Bualuang Securities expects the SET index to rise toward 1,710 points by mid-2027. Crime & Courts: Thailand’s Consumers Council moved forward with Facebook-related online scam lawsuits, with the next hearing set for Nov 23. Tourism & Aviation: Thai Airways will resume direct flights to Xiamen from Oct 25 with four weekly services. Sports: Thailand swept SEA V Cup 2026 women’s volleyball leg 2 in Chiang Mai, finishing unbeaten.
