Deputy PM and Finance Minister Ekniti told parliament the 400bn baht borrowing decree covers energy-crisis relief and the shift to clean energy. He says borrowing will be only as needed, projects will be screened for value, and private firms may invest with the state and sell electricity directly. Q2 current-account deficit was nearly 600bn baht, and the government warned that prolonged cost pressure could close businesses and cut jobs. For an SME: watch for solar and clean-energy project tenders and direct power-sale openings, and plan for continued energy and living-cost pressure while the scheme is still unfolding.
