Thai to English: Bank of Thailand's Annual Economic Report 2009 (Section on Producer Price Index) General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Economics
Translation - English The producer price index (PPI) dropped by 3.8 percent in 2009, after rising by 12.4 percent in 2008. The decline was attributable to manufactured products, whose prices subsided by 5.6 percent, compared to a growth of 11.2 percent in 2008. In addition, prices of mining products continued to fall by 10.9 percent from a contraction of merely 2.3 percent in 2008. Although prices of agricultural products rose by 5.8 percent, the rate substantially decelerated from the previous year’s growth of 20.7 percent.
The decline in prices of manufactured and mining products followed the downward trend of global commodity prices, including the prices of crude oil, natural gas, metallic minerals, petroleum products, chemicals, chemical products, base metals, and metal products, as well as rubber and plastic products. This resulted from significant external demand contraction following the global recession.
Prices of agricultural products, particularly agricultural and livestock products, continued to rise from the previous year, notwithstanding the sluggish global demand and damages in supply due to unfavorable climate conditions especially during the first half of 2009.
On average, manufactured product prices in the global market plummeted in 2009. Nevertheless, the last quarter of the year witnessed a rebound in prices of manufactured products due to increasing consumer demand as several economies, particularly in Asia, started to recover. The price levels, however, still remained below those of the pre-crisis levels in 2008.
Thai to English: Regulation on the Calculation of Credit Risk-Weighted Assets for Commercial Banks under the Internal Rating-Based Approach (IRB) (No. 2) General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: Finance (general)
Translation - English The BOT extended the regulation to allow commercial banks to choose their methods of reducing credit risks in the case with guarantees or credit derivatives, by considering the situation in which both obligors and guarantors fail to meet their obligations (Double Default Approach). Moreover, the BOT also revised the wording of the regulation for greater completeness and clarity.

Experience
Years of experience: 19. Registered at ProZ.com: Mar 2010.
Throughout the years of education in the US, English has become my second tongue that you can rest assured on. More details in my resume.
Experience and quality.
I first started translating and interpreting for Yale Law School on a pretty complicated legal case, during my freshman year at Yale University. Then I started doing it freelance as well. It's been 7 years in the business.
Besides the Law School, I've been translating for many respectable clients, including government agencies such as the Bank of Thailand and the Ministry of Public Health. I've also worked with many commercial clients (but I always keep their project details confidential, unless I've secured their permission to mention them in public).
Difficult projects? This way, please.
If you have hard projects other translators shy away from, please contact me. I've handled them all (but might need to charge you a bit more).
Too technical? No problem, I love challenging projects.
Weird media/file formats? I'm skilled in CAT tools. Double-majoring in Computer Science in college, I'm also very fast with computer programs in general. Desktop publishing, graphic design, and all kinds of projects are welcome.
Tight deadline? That's also fine.
Fast turnaround, responsive, and responsible. I always turn in the work well (often days) before its deadline.
Last but important, reasonable rates.Starting from 0.07 USD per source word (for translation). For interpreting services (Bangkok and nearby only), please contact me directly with project details.
Surcharges may apply for projects with extremely tight deadlines and/or use of technical skills. All rates are negotiable depending upon the nature of the work, the deadline, our long-term relationship, and so on.
To get quick, more accurate best rate quotes for your projects, please contact me with project details and/or samples.
