Singapore is 9th on the global positioning.Of the three Ts, Thailand ranks best for technology (38), talent (84), and worst for tolerance (105)Thailand ranks behind Singapore (9), Laos (42), Philippines (52), Malaysia (63), and Vietnam (80).Australia was found to be the most creative, with a global ranking of 1 in talent, 4 in tolerance, and 7 in technology.The United States is ranked second while being 3rd in talent, 4th in technology and 11th in tolerance.New Zealand came in 3rd, as it was 3rd in tolerance, 7th in tech, and 8th in talent.The Martin Prosperity Institute (MPI) at the University of Toronto conducted the study with the aim of deciding which of the 196 countries of the world is the most creative.Using what they dubbed the Global Creativity Index (GCI), researchers defined creativity as the “three T’s”: talent, technology, and tolerance.Technology rankings were based on investment levels in research and development, plus how many patent applications per capita each country had.Talent was evaluated by using a composite of the percentage of adults who owned an advanced degree, as well as the percentage of the workforce that had jobs in the creative industry.Rankings for the third factor, tolerance, were found based on how each country treated their immigrants, the diversity of the racial and ethnic minorities.To obtain their rankings, the researchers analyzed 139 countries, with many countries of low economic status being left off the list as complete data couldn’t be sourced, and ranked them in each category.Overall creativity was determined by each country’s ranking across the T’s, then divided by the total observations made in each category patent applications per capita, creative-class measure, etc.Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/thailand-stands-at-82nd-place-in-global-creative-ranking -- Thai PBS 2015-11-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesetat2013 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I would bet the Thai news is making this report actually sound good. As a country who thinks they are the hub of almost everything these standings show the world that they still have very far to go even just to equal other Asian countries. What a shame for the education and Buddhist teachings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod reborn Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I would say 82nd place is a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toybits Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) With the interim blah blah blah alone, that ranking should be near top 10. When you add those drafting bodies - It would be unbeatable. Edited November 5, 2015 by toybits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubby johnson Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Thailand should get "creative" and cheat its way to a higher ranking. Thais are quite good at this sort of "creativity". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starchild5 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 More BS...All Rankings "Created" To Show How Developed and Wonderful western Civilization is Its the combination that counts...Good Nightlife...No Police Brutality...No High Taxes..No Refugee Crisis..Good Food...Good weather..Smiling People.. In my analysis ..Called "Chill Out - Be Happy" ...Thailand is still the Number 1 country on earth... Ma Pen Rai - Is the best attitude which the west terms as Chill Out Bro.....

Lupatria Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) There goes the dream of achieving the Nobel Price. Who would have expected that? Can't be long and negative rankings will be banned from publication. Edited November 5, 2015 by Lupatria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
