BANGKOK (NNT) - The Ministry of Commerce has announced a plan to promote Thailand’s digital content through workshops and campaigns, aiming to better promote Thai culture and soft powers.

 

The first campaign for this year starts with a content pitching event where Thai content producers get to negotiate deals with major streaming platforms, namely Netflix, WeTV, iQIYI, and Viu.

 

With this campaign, the Ministry of Commerce hopes to position Thailand as Asia’s leader in digital content.

Minister of Commerce Jurin Laksanawisit said his ministry will be supporting the export of Thai digital content and soft powers to a wider audience at the international level.

 

The ministry expects this content pitching event to generate some 300 million baht in value. He ordered the Department of International Trade Promotion to make future plans and report on the outcomes of promotional events throughout this year.

Really?!  It would help if they could get their current platforms function properly.

Mixed levels of enthusiasm evident in that photograph. Some doubles some singles. Does this replace the 'pointing' gesture?

Outlaw all pirate copies of Windows 7 and the country would collapse.

Wake me up when it arrives zzzzzz zzzzz zzzzz 

One has to wonder if the powers-that-be have any idea of Thailand's reputation around the world. It can be embarrassing to inform your friends and family that you live in Thailand.

 

About the only successful thing the Thai government has ever done to exert their "soft powers" is their support for the establishment of restaurants around the world serving ersatz Thai food.

Can they design and deploy a good looking functional website yet?

I'll eagerly await a reply to this question. 

None of the Thai websites I've used are complete, even Lazada is a mess.
