The Thailand truck market has shown some strong resilience during the political and economical crisis that shook Thailand and the world in 2009. Despite the current drop in demand, the market did not collapse and suppliers have been so aggressive in their manufacturing output cut that they could not meet Thai demand in 2009 and had to import trucks from Japan. The market is expected to remain strong over the next 2-3 years with pre-crisis volumes of 25-27,000 units per year foretasted for 2012.
