As a result, investors have increased their weighting to 70 percent from 64 percent in expecting the FED to raise interest rates by 0.25 percent at its meeting on September 15-16.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance is considering extending the Thai Chai Thai Plus program by another one to two months, and the EV Board has approved excise tax measures to push the import tax on electric vehicles to three rates.
