With the exception of 1992 and 1993, the average rate of growth for computer exports over the past decade was 20 percent a year.

Exports of computers and parts in 1999 showed an increase of only two percent over the previous year, which is low in comparison with recent years. Computer parts made up about 76 per cent of total value of computer exports, with the rest consisting of completely built up units. Major export markets were the US, Singapore and the EU, taking in 28, 27 and 20 percent of the total value of Thailands computer exports respectively.The hard disk drive industry in Thailand began in 1983 with Seagates investment in head-stack assembly, employing some 50 workers. Some fifteen years later, the industry has expanded to include around 25 firms engaged in all aspects of the industrys assembling and manufacturing activities. The HDD industry accounted for approximately ten percent of Thailands total exports in 1998, earning US$ 5.3 billion.

Thailand has become one of the worlds important production sites for hard disk drives and related components, but the country faces significant competition from Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines and China. While American and Japanese companies dominate sales of HDD, over 65 percent of product final assembly is achieved in Southeast Asia with Singapore having almost 50 percent of the total market.
