Thailand‘s development has seen an elevation as reflected in the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Report for 2023.

 

In a statement relayed by Trisulee Trisoranakul, the Deputy Government Spokesman, it is reported that Thailand’s Prime Minister and the Minister of Defense, known as Prayuth Chan-Ocha, are pleased. Thailand has now improved its standing to the 43rd position among 166 countries from the 44th last year.

 

The Sustainable Development Report outlines that Thailand has, for the fifth consecutive year, held the number one spot for sustainable development within the ASEAN region. This successful development, represented through an SDG Index score of 74.7 in 2023, underlines the government’s tireless efforts to foster sustainable progress.

 

The accomplishments are seen as an affirmation of the nation’s strategic goals and developmental plans across all levels, such as the 12th and 13th National Economic and Social Development plans.

How much of that is reflected in a cleaner country, lower use of carbon and less waste?

 

Just box ticking.
