The court ruling ending the environmental impasse in Rayongâ€™s Map Ta Phut industrial estate would help boost the countryâ€™s investment climate and investment could grow by about 9.3 per cent in 2011, Kasikorn Research Centre said on Friday.

The Administrative Court on Thursday approved the operating permits of 74 projects which were earlier suspended, revoking the permits of only two projects and requiring they produce new environmental and health assessment reports.

The research centre believed the court’s ruling was a positive sign and it would boost investment by 8.1-8.8 per cent this year and about 7.5-9.3 per cent next year.
