The phrase "anchor economy" is used early on, with no definition or link - this needs to be defined.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.10.99.98 (talk) 04:01, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The 177 b GDP number appears to be a nominal GDP based on current exchange rates. Often, the World Bank, CIA or other sources will use a Purchasing Power Parity (PPP)-based exchange rate, which adjusts the nominal number based on cost of living in the particular country. For example, the nominal GDP per capita in Thailand may be 80,000 B per year, which would be about US$2,000 based on an exchange rateof 40 B/US$. However, the things you can buy with 80,000 B in Thailand may cost you more like US$8,000 in the US, so the PPP-based GDP per capita would be US$8,000. I've usually seen a PPP/nominal ratio of between 4-5 for Thailand, hence the CIA factbook giving a PPP-based Thai GDP of around US$570 billion.

message: Hello everyone, I am working for the International Trade Centre (ITC), a UN/WTO agency that aims to promote sustainable economic development through trade promotion. I would like to propose the addition of an external link (http://www.macmap.org/QuickSearch/FindTariff/FindTariff.aspx?subsite=open_access&country=SCC764%7cThailand&source=1|ITC Market Access Map) that leads directly to our online database of customs tariffs applied by Thailand. Visitors can easily look up market access information for Thailand by selecting the product and partner of their interest. I would like you to consider this link under the WP:ELYES #3 prescriptions. Moreover, the reliability and the pertinence of this link can be supported by the following facts 
1) ITC is part of the United Nations, and aims to share trade and market access data on by country and product as a global public good
2) No registration is required to access this information
3) Market access data (Tariffs and non-tariff measures) are regularly updated
Thank you,
