More than 53 per cent said they intended to run their business in the future, up 10.8 per cent from the last survey.
However, 64.2 per cent of respondents said they had no interest in investing in a start-up, fearing failure — a 1.9 per cent increase from the previous survey.
Of these respondents, 46.1 per cent cited a lack of funds, 42.5 per cent fear of business losses, and 40.6 per cent higher costs due to rising fuel prices.
The opinion poll was conducted jointly with Bangkok University’s School of Entrepreneurship and Management.
