(Reuters file photo)Japan's Sharp Corp has resumed television production in Thailand after a 10-year hiatus in a bid to boost sales of home appliances in Southeast Asia and India. Sharp said a light-emitting diode TV production line at its plant in Nakhon Pathom Province, west of Bangkok, caters to domestic demand for TV sets and also exports to Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam and India. Sharp's Thai plant halted TV output about 10 years ago when it decided to integrate its regional TV production in Malaysia. Sharp also plans to launch an Aquos ultra high-definition TV in the Southeast Asian region next year.
