Thai industrial sentiment hits 2-yr low in June, business federation says

BANGKOK (Reuters) – The Thai industrial sentiment index fell for a third straight month to its lowest in two years in June due to a slow economy, weak demand and bad debt problems, the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) said on Wednesday.

The FTI said its industrial sentiment index dropped to 87.2 in June from 88.5 in May.
