Finance Minister Ekniti says a fuel excise cut is under consideration to ease energy-crisis costs, targeting E20 (sugarcane/cassava ethanol blend) and palm-based biodiesel. It would likely take effect in fiscal 2027, not yet decided, and depends on fiscal room. Public debt is 67.45% of GDP against a 70% ceiling. The Thais Help Thais Plus stimulus is due to expire at month-end; the Finance Ministry will ask cabinet on Tuesday for an extension. Plan fuel and transport costs on current prices for now, and watch for the cabinet decision on the stimulus extension.
