Real GPP during each governor's tenure
Every governor since 1991, ranked by how real GPP changed from their first day in office, next to Thailand over the same months. Politare shows what happened during a tenure; it does not claim the office-holder caused it.

Sorted by total, highest first. Every row is indexed to the last count complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that count had no data, or because the period cut it); Thailand is measured over the same months. Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in %; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. ฿bn, chain volume (2002) · National Economic and Social Development Council, gross regional and provincial product (the yearly 'GPP On Web' workbook, 1995 on), chain volume, reference year 2002; the latest year provisional, the province of Bangkok · province data · as of Jul 2026.
