BOI to promote Kingdom as a centre for subcontracting
By THE NATION

 

BANGKOK: -- WITH THE government’s plan to base the economy more on technology and innovation, the Board of Investment will promote Thailand as the centre of subcontracting industries in Asean and in Asia as a whole, as many foreign investors look to expand businesses in this emerging region.

 

“With emerging growth of industrial development under the ‘Thailand 4.0’ and ‘Industrial 4.0’ policies to emphasise technological development and innovation, Thailand could become the trading centre for industrial [equipment] and a sourcing centre for high-quality industrial products,” said Wirat Tatsaringkansakul, director of the BOI Unit for Industrial Linkage Development (BUILD).

 

He said Thailand’s supporting industries were set to grow even further, since many foreign investors were hoping to expand their bases into Asean, particularly Thailand, as the government plans strong infrastructure development, while the Thailand 4.0 policy will facilitate their business growth.

The subcontracting "hub", or the "hub" that "passes the buck"!  A  "hub" that Thais will and do excel at!

All these things are dreamt up because Thailand is going down in the international stage.

But I'm surprised the powers that be haven't made Thailand the hub of the universe yet... though of course they all think it is already.

I was at a recent business event in Bangkok and met a very smart woman from the BOI, she said that there are a lot of things they are working on to make it easier for SMEs to setup in Thailand. 

I'm going to meet with them soon to discuss my enterprise.

Investment into Thailand in 2016 was 584 Billion Baht.
