ICT forum eyed as FDI springboard
The government is hopeful an upcoming global forum for the information and communication technology industry will provide an avenue for foreign direct investment from global tech companies. The ITU Telecom World Forum 2016, to be held in Bangkok from Nov 14-17, will also allow the Thai government to update its digital economic policy, said Takorn Tantasith, secretary-general of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission.
