BANGKOK (NNT) - Seven ministries have established a cooperative framework to promote life-long learning among the Thai people. The campaign aims to improve people’s livelihoods, in line with the government’s national strategy.

 

Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha presided over the signing ceremony of an agreement between seven ministries to promote lifelong learning. The framework was first initiated in 2017 between the Ministry of Public Health, the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security, the Ministry of Interior, and the Ministry of Education.

 

The new agreement signed on Thursday (24 Apr) further expanded this cooperation to the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation, the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, and the Ministry of Labor.

The life-long learning campaign aims to enhance human resources at all levels and ages. The plan for young children will involve the 5H concept comprising Heart, Head, Hand, Health, and Hi-tech.

 

Meanwhile, the plan for senior citizens will involve the 4S concept, which comprises Social Participation, Social Security, Strong Health and Smart Digital and Innovation.

 

The prime minister on this occasion delivered his remarks to encourage self-sufficiency, while also expressing his appreciation for government officials and the general public for actively cooperating to achieve sustainable solutions.

LOL.  I am sure all Thais love to learn.

I think a better first step would be to focus on learning while in school strategies

Perhaps make learning to drive properly one of those life-long strategies?  The lives could then be longer.

If they didn't waste so much valuable time at school for their inane indoctrination nonsense, people would have a strong foundation to build upon later in life. As things are, Thai education is rotten from the very start, and it's probably pretty much impossible to make up for that deficit later on.

5H 4S? Fluff announcement....sounding fancy to try impress the citizenry minions.  Pray-hoot trying to show his leadership relevance and failing miserably.

[Will B Good]

Hugely impressed with the notion of 5H and 4S.......the UK electorate have been dumbed down so far that they can only handle Tory three word slogans.....go Thailand.

[dinsdale]

Hi-tech? There's plenty of schools in Thailand where there most modern technology in the classroom is a fan.

If Prayuth thinks Thai will be the world's universal language why are all these slogans English based.  What's the Thai equivalent of 'Social Participation, Social Security, Strong Health and Smart Digital and Innovation.'?  Or are there no Thai words for any of the above 4S?

First step is to secure platforms on Line and Facebook. Then, incentivize viewing with gambling and gifts.

 

This will just be another funding black hole sorry to say. People need real jobs.

 

No Coursera, Masterclasses, university online learning lol.
