Abstracts

Bangkok is the driving force of Thailand's economy, generating 44% of the country's total GDP in 2012. The economic efficiency of the city is related to its major infrastructure facilities (including its seaport and Bangkok International airport, the 14th largest globally), and notable tourist flows. It makes commerce the largest contributor to the economy of Bangkok. A higher income level in the city attracts notable immigration from rural Thailand, which drives population growth in Bangkok.
