By Viparat Jantraprap BANGKOK, Oct 9 (Reuters) - Southeast Asian stock markets were mixed on Friday, with Malaysia and Thailand seeing modest gains on buying in financials such as CIMB and Bangkok Bank, while Singapore inched up with Singapore Airlines leading the way. Malaysia's index <.KLSE> added 0.3 percent, with CIMB Group <CIMB.KL> up 0.8 percent following an earnings upgrade by broker TA, while Thailand <.SETI> ended up 0.4 percent, led by a 1.5 percent gain in the biggest bank, Bangkok Bank <BBL.BK> . Malaysia's AMMB Holdings <AMMB.KL> gained 1.1 percent, RHB Capital <RHBC.KL> rose 2.1 percent, Kasikornbank <KBAN.BK> rose 1.7 percent and Siam Commercial Bank <SCB.BK> was up 0.5 percent. The Thai equity market has been seeing fund inflows in recent weeks and market valuations remained low compared to regional peers, analysts said. "Thailand is cheap in an absolute sense with the market having the lowest forward price-earnings ratio of all the countries in the region, and at 1.7 times price-to-book value it is trading well below the regional average on price to book value as well," Macquarie Research said in a note to clients. Publicly traded companies in Thailand are trading at just 12.9 times estimated 2010 earnings, making them the cheapest in Asia after Pakistan. That compares with the Philippines' 15 times Indonesia's 16 times, according to Thomson Reuters data. Singapore's index <.FTSTI> gained 0.06 percent, with Singapore Airlines <SIAL.SI> up 2.5 percent after Morgan Stanley upgraded its recommendation on the carrier to "overweight", citing a possible global economic recovery in 2010 which would boost premium travel. [nSIN497358] Other gainers in the city-state included Singapore Telecom <STEL.SI> , which climbed 1.3 percent, and heavyweight developer CapitaLand <CATL.SI> , which rose 0.3 percent. Singapore-listed coal miner Straits Asia Resources <STRL.SI> dropped 8.6 percent after the company announced its new coal-loading facility at its mining site in Indonesia's East Kalimantan has collapsed due to heavy rain. Vietnam <.VNI> gained 1.8 percent to its highest since Sept 30, with PVFC <PVF.HM> , the financial arm of state oil group Petrovietnam, and Development Investment Construction <DIG.HM> each gaining almost 5 percent. Vietnam was the best performer for the week with a gain of 5.9 percent, followed by a 4.4 percent rise in the Philippines. Markets in the region performed better this week supported by optimism over the global economy. Bucking the trend, Indonesia <.JKSE> fell for a third day, with state miner Aneka Tambang <ANTM.JK> down 1.9 percent, automotive distributor Astra International <ASII.JK> down 0.9 percent and Bank Rakyat <BBRI.JK> down 4.2 percent. The Philippines <.PSI> lost 0.9 percent, with Ayala Land <ALI.PS> falling 4 percent and Ayala Group <AC.PS> down 2.4 percent. Among bright spot in the region, Thailand's top stainless steel firm Thainox <INOX.BK> gained 1.4 percent after shotting up more than 11 percent earlier following its confirmation that major shareholders are in talks with South Korea's POSCO <005490.KS> on possible share sales.
