Digital Economy : Where will we go?


Old structure of Thai economy compose of industrial sector,
 
agricultural sector,financial sector ,commercial

and service sector.Nowadays another sector that is

important to Thai economy is digital economy.It is

 important by the  growth rate in the sector itselt and

 it provide growth rate to other sectors of economy.

 

Update estimated market value of digital economy by

The Thai Chamber of  Commerce and Board of Trade

of Thailand only found as of 2013.

Total market is about 1.2 trillion baht which equal 10 per cent

of GDP (this amount is excluding electronic market value of

1.5 trillion baht)

The estimated market value of ICT market total amount

of 1.2 trillion baht are composed of

1.Telecommucation market              500   billion baht

2.E-Commerce  market                     400  billion baht

3.Broadcasting market                       100  billion baht

4.Information Technology market     100  billion baht

5.Digital Contents market                    50  billion baht

6.Digital Marketing market                  10  billion baht

 

New digital economy today is different from old digital

economy which initially come about two decades ago.

While the old one was based on the use of personal

computer connected to the internet,the new one is in

form of the use of “smart devices” such as smartphone

and tablets which are connected via wireless broadband

and 3G services.

To handle digital economy affairs,The Ministry of

 Information and Communication Technology will
 
 transfer to Ministry of Digital Economy.

The challenge task of Ministry of Digital Economy are to :

1.Improve old digital network to National broadband and

Digital gateway.

2.Form Data Center

3.Improve investment overlap between government sector

and private sector to be efficiency.

4.Promote investment of private sector to be ready for

competitiveness in AEC.

 

To reach our goal in digital economy every sectors must

integrate their effort to propel the effectiveness :

Government sectors :

As Ministry of Information and Communication Technology

will  transfer to Ministry of Digital Economy,how to operate

with efficient is the point.

1.Clear  vision,goal,plan,strategy,direction and work to do

in short run and long run term for the civil servants are

necessary.

2.The ambiguity in every auctions must be clear and fair

enough for every parties.

3.Corruption in every process must be eliminate and

 transparent process is essential to make everyone satisfy.

4.Play role of the National Broading and Telecommunications

Commission (NBCT) must be clear.And I think the NBTC

should be independent entity that can be investigate the error

in new digital economy and counterbalance with the Ministry

of  Digital  Economy.

 

Private Sectors :

Private sectors usually prepare themselves well for new

opportunity in the business but must not look down the

competitor. Source of fund ,new technology and skill

work force must  prepare to be competitive in the

business.

 

Thai Citizens :

As I know ,we worry that the cyber security bill will

open the door to abuse of power by the government

because section 35 would allow the national cyber

security committee,established under the bill,to gain

access to people’s personal information through

email,telegraph,fax and electronic devices in the name
 
of national security.

To protect our rights we must keep an eye on this bill,

participate ,discuss when we have opportunity to make

sure that the bill will not gain over our right.

 

Currently the bill concern are being scrutinized by the

Council of State before sent back to the cabinet again.

Tomorrow there will be a meeting of temporary committee

on digital economy with Prime Minister Prayuth.

And I hope that there will be a best solution for our new

Digital Economy.
