Thailand Post Co. raised prices for domestic letter and parcel deliveries this week, the first such move by the state enterprise in 18 years, as the country’s inflation rate has accelerated to a 14-year high.
“The price adjustment is necessary to keep up with the economic situation and costs,” Thailand Post said in a statement this week, after the Cabinet’s green light to increase shipment rates came into effect.
