Hey guys,

Had to pick a SE Asian country to do a presentation on tomorrow, and I of course picked Thailand.

Any help is much appreciated. Useful information would be:

The structure of Thailand's fiscal system, ie. levels of government (local, central) and their responsibilities.

Revenue sources used by each level, govt expenditures and revenues

Effectiveness and coverage of public services.

What aspects of fiscal system are working, possible problem areas, and possible reforms.

And perhaps most useful, where I can get this information myself.

Also, I've compiled all this info.. any info as to how I can interpret it for a presentation would be great:

I don't know the answer to your questions, but your exchange rate is reversed. It is 32 baht to the dollar, or close to that.

CIA World Factbook is a good place to start.

Why don't you ask your teachers about what resources are available to you?
