Thailand Aug factory output is seen down for third straight month

Factory output in Thailand may have fallen for a third straight month in August as faltering global demand drags down exports, even though industry continues to restore more capacity after devastating floods late last year.

Production in August probably dropped 7.0 per cent from a year earlier, according to the median forecast of 10 economists polled by Reuters.

The Industry Ministry has predicted a fall of 4-6 per cent in factory output in August from a year earlier.
