Education Ministry Proposes Rewards System for Positive Youth Behavior

Thailand’s Education Ministry is developing a proposed Social Credit system intended to reward good behavior among young people. The initiative forms part of the third phase of the National Moral Promotion Action Plan and would convert good deeds into measurable behavioural capital. Positive conduct could eventually be tied to practical benefits involving education, employment and access to government services. The plan is being developed alongside ethics programmes for children under 13, with several ministries studying age-appropriate approaches. Officials said the objective is to encourage lasting positive values, although detailed scoring, monitoring and implementation procedures have not yet been announced.
