fruitman Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 On another thread the minister said it had to do with a website and 20.000 shops on it....Kind of Alibaba or made-in-china.com i think. But will that website be in english as well? If you email one of those vendors in China you'll get reply within an hour...vely good. I never got reply when i emailed a thai company.

A super big website to sell Thai made stuff. 20,000 resellers all on one site. Sure there is more, there always is, but that is all that was made understandable.

Lupatria Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 There must be some nasty "phee pop" behind it that prevents Thais to understand anything labelled with the number "4" - article 44, Thailand 4.0, gate 44... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhizBang Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 No one in this country, including Prayut et al, understand Thailand 4.0. The reason being that it really does not mean anything. It is just a buzz word created to make people think the junta are actually doing something. On top of which the junta are actually hostile to anything digital. Maybe they really ment Thailand 0.4.

Tchooptip Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Most Thai do not understand Thailand 4.0 Pffff Why they do not asked ThaiVisa?

mtls2005 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Maybe they should add this to the twelve core values and get all school children to recite it each day? I suspect someone's child/nephew came up with this idea, and then it became mantra. It will probably be forgotten, or replaced, in a few months. How do the principles of the sufficiency economy fit in to Thailand 4.0? Only take two selfies per day? Edited March 10, 2017 by mtls2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldenbrwn1 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I just watched the Thai 4.0 advert on CNBC. Lots of robot machinery, super futuristic assembly lines and infrastructure images, Thai people dressed in white coats looking very intelligent.....I can't remember the buzz words used but you can imagine.

debate101 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Does it have anything to do with internet censorship, computer crimes act, single gateway, government-sponsored unsecured e-payment system, coal power plants, or WWII era submarine warfare? Because if so, maybe we do understand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAS21 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Having scanned through it ... gooble-de-gook to me. maybe it means Thailand will become a self actualizing country. I definitely suspect that 35% figure. I think there are two decimal places missing ... both to the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 They love their infographics and powerpoints. But I'm not sure I've seen one concrete plan, step or activity that would lead to a "creative, innovative or smart" Thailand. This looks very "gimmicky" with little more supporting it than a few vague talking points. Why am I reminded of the "principles of the sufficiency economy"? Another "concept" which people struggle to define, and pretty much know one udnerstands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an astrologer/soothsayer/fortune teller in the Ministry for Silly Walks who knows all about this.Please apply to him for any further details-if cannot be found the local village wise women may be able to assist you or,at least,give you a sure fire winning lottery number.
