Country-specific Snapshot: Thailand • U.S. exports to Thailand increased by 21.7 percent last year making it the 27th largest destination for U.S. exports. • 2011’s flood season saw the most severe flooding in 70 years and caused the Thai economy to grow by only 1%. • Thailand’s wastewater segment now accounts for half of the total pollution control equipment market.

  13. For Additional Reading • This report comprehensively documents the state of septage management for onsite sanitation systems in many Asian cities. • It provides a regional analysis of key challenges and existing good practices related to septage management. • The key finding is that most countries neglect septage management, which results in significant urban water, environmental and public health damages. • Nevertheless, a number of countries and cities in the region have established programs that can be replicated. • http://pdf.usaid.gov/pdf_docs/PNADS118.pdf USAID: A Rapid Assessment of Septage Management in Asia: Policies and Practices in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam, 2010.
