Finance Minister Ekniti says the government will decide within 2–3 weeks whether to extend the Thais Help Thais Plus stimulus, mainly depending on whether the Middle East energy crisis persists; funding remains. Vendors can use Nok Krasip AI sales data as supporting evidence for loans. Government Savings Bank offers vendor loans up to 50,000 baht at 0.75% per month with no collateral; Krungthai Bank offers loans up to 500,000 baht at 11%. Plan cash flow around a possible end to the stimulus, and compare loan options before borrowing.
