The survey of selected Thai urban-based MSEs is part of the SPPD project undertaken by the ILO in Thailand as described above. Its objective is to build a framework, based upon which the validity and relevance can be determined for applying accumulated experiences and best practice methods in providing Business Development Services (BDS) from the international arena to the Thai MSEs. The survey is thus designed to check or find out information on particular issues, rather than being completely and comprehensively descriptive in nature. It is described as follows.
