Thailand's economy remains a priority for 2025, especially under the leadership of new Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the country's youngest prime minister.
Paetongtarn's appointment follows the removal of Srettha Thavisin due to an ethics violation, raising questions about the influence of her father, Thaksin Shinawatra.
Amidst political challenges, including the dissolution of the Move Forward Party, the Pheu Thai Party seeks to implement policies focusing on economic development.
Increasing tourism is crucial for Thailand's economy, with forecasts projecting a record-breaking 40 million visitors for 2025.
Analysts suggest that the new administration could offer a mix of continuity and adaptation, with ongoing controversies around Thaksin's influence in governance.
