Don't be absurd. AMD, Seagate, etc., etc., all have huge factories in Thailand, and Thailand is one of the world's largest producers of computer monitors.
Okay fair enough -- each make some PCB's in Thailand - but the notebooks and desktops from Dell, IBM (Lenovo), and HP are manufactured in Malaysia and China, and some decent local Asian brands such as Samsung and Acer in Korea and Taiwan. So Thailand has no manufacturing industry to protect by imposing in import tariff on these electronics.
