Thailand's economy will maintain its growth this year due to a strong rebound in the tourism sector, but weakness in the export sector could stifle the positive momentum and dampen the overall economic outlook, ttb analytics at TMB Thanachart Bank warned on Tuesday.

TMB Analytics has revised the country’s GDP downwards from 3 per cent to 2.7 per cent following a higher than expected drop in the economy in the first half of this year, Analytics’ head Naris Sathapholdeja said on Monday.
