On the other hand, there is considerable empirical support for the expectations-aug...

The Phillips curve in Thailand¤

The subject of this paper is the estimation of the Phillips curve in Thailand. The aim of the estimation is to ...t the Phillips curve as part of a small-scale, log-linearised structural model for the country, which is suitable to form the basis for a future simulation exercise to ...nd an optimum monetary policy rule. A linear form of the Phillips curve is estimated using ordinary least square...
