Thai economists predict further economic contraction from Covid-19 fallout

Planned investment in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) may not be enough to upgrade the economy into a 4.0 economy that is driven by information technology. 

 

I had to do some minor business at a major Thai bank company branch the other day. Even though I know I had updated the info before, they claimed they had my old passport number on record, not my current one. So couldn't do anything until I returned with my current passport, which I did.

 

At that point, we launched into about a half hour long process that involved them making multiple photocopies of my old and current passports, then having me sign probably a dozen different pages, then them manually stamping many of those pages, and lots of shuffling and rechecking...

 

All to get a one-page printout of my account activity for 2019, for which they charged me a 200b fee... Heck, for a while there, I thought they had me applying for a new 30-year home loan mortgage, there was so much paperwork involved...

 

So amid all that, I really want to ask, where the heck is Thailand's "4.0 economy that is driven by information technology."
