BANGKOK (Reuters) -Thailand's economic growth may falter at under 2.9% this year after a weaker-than-expected fourth quarter despite a vaunted government cash handout aimed at firing up sluggish growth, the central bank chief said on Thursday. The Bank of Thailand previously anticipated that the economy could expand by 2.9% this year, lower than the finance ministry's projection of 3% growth. "I have to say that there is some downside risk to that figure," Governor Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput told Reuters in an interview.
