FTI comes up with measures to ease impact of strong baht

FTI vice-chairman Chen Numchaisiri said it would hold talks with the central bank about the baht next week.

"We call on the central bank to take aggressive action to tackle baht appreciation, as its value has jumped 3.13% against the dollar since Dec 21 last year, making it the strongest currency in Asia after the yen," he said.
