The current edition of The Economist is the fourth edition of the magazine that has not appeared in Thailand during 2009.
Two editions at the end of January failed to make it to the Kingdom, and in April an article about the monarchy led to a decision by the publishers not to distribute.
What's different about this week's case is the clear identification (in an email to subscribers) that the company which looks after deliveries to subscribers took the decision not to handle this edition.
Although no official figures are available I understand The Economist has in the region of 1,800 subscribers in Thailand. Each has had their subscription increased by one copy to take account of the "missing" edition.
