BANGKOK (Reuters) – Thailand’s manufacturing production index (MPI) in April rose 0.56% from a year earlier, less than expected, the industry ministry said on Monday.
That compared with a forecast 1.6% rise in output in a Reuters poll and a yearly increase of 0.44% in March, revised from a 0.1% fall.
