Thailand, with its population of around 66 million (of which 30 percent are between the ages of five and 24 years) is the second largest economy in ASEAN. Its strategic location in the center of ASEAN means it has access to the bloc’s 600 million consumers within a 3,000km radius, bringing vast opportunities for cross-border trade and investments.
