Thailand's Income Inequality Linked to Wealth Disparities in Key Industries.
The study looked at income inequality in Thailand by breaking it down into different factors like sources of income, industries, and household characteristics. They found that income from businesses is the biggest contributor to inequality. Industries like real estate, retail, manufacturing, and agriculture have the highest income inequality. Wealth and access to credit play a big role in income inequality, even more than education. Different types of funding affect income inequality in different industries.
