Thailand has made significant strides in its digital competitiveness, jumping five spots from the previous year to rank 35th out of 64 economic territories. This progress is revealed in the World Digital Competitiveness Ranking (WDCR) 2023, published by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD).

 

The uplift in ranking is a result of advancements in three pivotal areas: technology, knowledge, and future readiness. Specifically, the technology factor saw an improvement of five places to 15th, while the knowledge aspect climbed four spots to 41st. Future readiness also marked a notable rise, advancing seven places to the 42nd spot.

 

Within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), Thailand’s position is third, trailing Singapore and Malaysia. Globally, Singapore secured third place, with Malaysia at 33rd. Other notable movements include Indonesia’s six-place rise to 45th and the Philippines’ three-place decline to 59th.

 

The top ten economies in the 2023 ranking comprise the United States, Netherlands, Singapore, Denmark, Switzerland, South Korea, Sweden, Finland, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. These economies, deemed as digital nations, are recognised for their comprehensive utilisation of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI).
