January CPI up 4.3%

The Kingdom's consumer price index (CPI) rose 4.3 per cent year-on-year in January, the highest record in 18 months since 2006.

Commerce Permanent Secretary Siripol Yodmuangcharoen said yesterday that the high CPI derived from increasing prices of food and beverages which expanded 4.8 per cent. Non-food items also soared 3.9 per cent.

However, CPI in the month increased only 0.8 per cent compared with December last year.
