Not directly related to the market but its interesting to see the latest numbers from Instagram showing that the #1 location in the world was Siam Paragon and that for the most instagrammed cities, Bangkok was #2, you can see below for the whole list. Now if I’m reaching for an investment case…well high number of smart phones in Thailand – top retailer JMART, lots of data users, then the telco’s ADVANC, DTAC and TRUE, high number of visitors then you have the airport, AOT, the airlines, THAI, AAV, NOK, if high visitors then the hotels..CENTEL MINT, ERW, lots of visitors in the hotels, then the food supplier, MAKRO. We could build the web out even future to include logistics co’s, leasing co’s, financing etc etc but you get this random thought 😉
