Industrial Estate Authority expects to sell/lease 2,500 rai next year as FDI rises
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 08, 2022
The Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (IEAT) estimates it will sell or lease about 2,500 rai (400 hectares) of land to investors next year, its governor said on Thursday.
Wiris Amrapal said he expects the recovery of the global economy coupled with development of IEAT estates to draw more foreign direct investment (FDI) to Thailand, resulting in more sale/lease of estates.
Wiris said the IEAT fast-developing industrial estates had already drawn attention from foreign investors.
FDI is starting to rise again, with overseas companies seeking opportunities in the Eastern Economic Corridor since September 1 after Thailand began issuing long-term residency visas, he said.
The increasing number of foreign investors could be seen from the steep rise in leasing and sales on IEAT estates, Wiris said.
From September 2021 to October 2022, the IEAT sold or leased 2,016.14 rai on estates, up 65.1% from the same period a year earlier.
Wiris said major IEAT development projects making significant progress this year include:
– Third phase of the Map Ta Phut Industrial Port project, where construction is 30.33% complete.
– Smart Park Industrial Estate (1,384 rai), where construction is 38.65% complete for the September 2024 deadline.
– Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Sa Kaew Industrial Estate (660.56 rai) in Aranyaprathet, where construction is 100% complete and six investors have moved in.
– Two industrial estates on Corrections Department land – one developed by Sivachai Co Ltd on 4,131 rai, and the other by Green Utility Holding.
– Project to cut greenhouse gas emissions, which now covers 31 factories.
Finance Ministry brushes off protest over upcoming tax on stock trades
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 08, 2022
The Finance Ministry is brushing off protesters who called on Thursday for an end to trading on the Stock Exchange of Thailand and warned authorities they would shift their money to foreign bourses due to the upcoming financial transaction tax.
If they want to trade on foreign bourses to avoid paying tax here, they will have to pay a tax there and it may be higher than here, said Kritsada Jinavijarana, the ministry’s permanent secretary.
Kritsada said that the Office of the Council of State was still ironing out some details of the new tax.
Kritsada also expressed optimism that the Thai economy would attain 5% annual growth due to the government’s efforts to restructure the agricultural and industrial sectors.
If there is more investment in Eastern Economic Corridor or the Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate the economy will expand, he said.
“Economic growth could come from several drivers, including tourism. Although the current base number [of tourists] is low, if 40 million tourists came to Thailand in 2023, it will help the [economy] grow,” he said, adding that if that number of tourists arrive next year the economy could grow by 5%,” Kritsada explained.
He also said he agreed with the estimate from the Fiscal Policy Office that the Thai economy would grow 3.4% this year and 3.8% next year.
Thailand remains secure financially and should be able to remain so in the long term, he added, explaining that the current level of foreign exchange reserves is “great”.
Kritsada declined to provide an opinion on the Pheu Thai’s policy goal of nearly doubling the minimum wage to 600 baht a day in four years, saying the Fiscal Policy Office is currently considering what effects this increase would have.
High growth potential for Thailand’s halal food industry as exports to Islamic nations keep growing
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 08, 2022
Thailand’s halal food industry has a bright future with rising value of export to Muslim nations and the increasing number of Muslim tourists visiting the country, the Trade Policy and Strategy Office said on Thursday.
TPSO Poonpong Naiyanapakorn said Thailand exported halal foods worth US$4.681 billion to the 57 member nations of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) during the first nine months of this year. The value rose by 64.65% from the same period last year, Poonpong said.
In 2014, the value of halal food exports to the 57 OIC nations was US$4.188 billion, an increase of 4.12% from the previous year, Poonpong added. The value of halal food exports was 12.13% of the overall food export value.
The top five halal food categories exported to the 57 OIC nations in 2014 were:
– Cereals worth $1.063 billion
– Food mixtures (preparations) made from meat, fish, and marine sources $619.36 million
– Sugar and sweets $522.53 million
– Food mixtures (preparations) made from cereal, flour and milk $330.17 million
– Miscellaneous foods mixtures (preparations) $260.05 million
Poonpong said the top five OIC nations that imported halal foods from Thailand in 2014 were:
– Malaysia $1.193 billion
– Indonesia $885.77 million
– United Arab Emirates $228.64 million
– Egypt $225.18 million
– Yemen $165 million.
Apart from exports, Thailand could also earn a lot of income from selling halal foods to visiting Muslim tourists, Poonpong said.
He said the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) 2022 made by the Mastercard-Crescent Rating reported that Thailand was ranked the third most popular destination for Muslim tourists after Singapore and Taiwan.
The ranking improved from fourth spot in the 2021 ratings, Poonpong added.
Before the Covid-19 pandemic, the statistics from the Tourism and Sports Ministry showed that of the 57 OIC nations, the highest number of travellers to Thailand came from Malaysia.
In 2019, 4.272 million Malaysian tourists visited Thailand and during the first 10 months of this year, 1.291 million tourists from the neighbouring country visited, followed by Indonesia and Saudi Arabia.
Poonpong added that the halal food industry has a bright future because of the large Muslim population worldwide and in Thailand.
He said statistics from the Pew Research Centre showed that world Muslim population was 1.9 billion, or 23.54% of world population.
Indonesia has the biggest Muslim population of 229 million, followed by Pakistan (200 million), India (195 million), Bangladesh (154 million) and Nigeria (99 million).
In Thailand, figures from the National Statistical Office of Thailand showed that there are 3.639 million Thai Muslims, or 5.4% of Thai population.
“Islam is the second most-practised religion in Thailand after Buddhism, so the Muslim consumer market is large with a lot of potential. Moreover, Muslims have a tendency to constantly spend [on halal foods],” Poonpong said.
TMBThanachart hikes loan interest rate but GHB maintains status quo
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 08, 2022
TMBThanachart Bank (TTB) on Thursday raised its lending rates following the central bank’s move to hike the key policy rate.
Piti Tantakasem, chief executive officer of TTB, said his bank had to raise the interest rate after the policy rate was increased for the third time this year.
On November 30, the Bank of Thailand’s Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to raise the policy interest rate by 25 basis points to 1.25% to control inflation.
Piti said TTB raised its MRR (minimum retail rate) for retail customers by 0.20 percentage point to 6.68% per annum while the MLR (minimum loan rate) for big clients was raised by 0.25 percentage point to 6.625% per annum.
He said the MOR (minimum overdraft rate) was raised by 0.25 percentage point to 6.65% per annum.
The increase takes immediate effect.
Meanwhile, Government Housing Bank president Chatchai Sirilai said the bank would maintain the current lending rates until the end of January before raising them in accordance with the new policy rate.
He said the GHB decided to maintain the current loan rates to minimise impact on its clients.
But the GHB has decided to increase its deposit rates for fixed accounts and deposit drafts with two-year, three-year, and five-year terms by 0.10 to 0.50 percentage point per annum from 1.1% per annum.
The increase will take effect on Friday, he said.
On Wednesday, Siam Commercial Bank (SCB) had raised its interest rates for both deposits and loans, the first bank to do so following the Bank of Thailand’s latest policy rate hike.
The baht opened at 34.88 to the US dollar on Thursday, strengthening from Wednesday’s close of 35.08.
The currency will likely move between 34.80 and 35.00 against the greenback during the day, Krungthai market strategist Poon Panichpibool said.
Poon said that the baht strengthened quickly last night after the dollar weakened and the gold price increased.
However, he cautioned the baht could weaken, especially if the latest US producer price index slows less than expected and triggers market concern over another possible rate hike by the US Federal Reserve.
The market is also in a risk-off state amid the global economic slowdown, which may trigger foreign fund outflows from the Thai stock market, Poon said.
However, he viewed that the baht will not weaken much and projected its key resistance level at 35.20, supported by foreign investors who are still buying Thai short-term and long-term bonds.
He forecast exporters would wait until the baht dropped close to its resistance level before selling dollars.
He also advised investors to use hedging tools such as options to manage risks in a highly volatile currency market.
Blue by Alain Ducasse celebrates third anniversary and third consecutive Michelin star in style with presence of the legend “Alain Ducasse”
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2022
It was double celebration for Blue by Alain Ducasse. Renowned for its culinary finesse, award-winning dining room and iconic river views, the contemporary French restaurant by the legendary mentor chef celebrated its third anniversary and followed it up by receiving its 3rd consecutive one-star rating in the Michelin Guide Thailand 2023 edition.
Located in ICONLUXE, ICONSIAM, on the banks of the historic Chao Phraya River, Blue is the first restaurant in Thailand by the legendary Alain Ducasse. The award-winning restaurant showcases ICONSIAM’s core value of creating a synergy between the best of Thailand and the best of the world.
On Wednesday, 23 November, Blue celebrated its third year in business. The invite-only gala party was attended by the city’s high society, media, and Alain Ducasse, who flew in for the event. “A Touch of Blue” was the evening’s theme. The path to the restaurant was dressed in the signature blue, and stilt walkers welcomed the over 700 guests, who added glamour to the festivities with their fashion-forward outfits in various shades of blue. Invitees sipped the exclusive Champagne Alain Ducasse as well as one of the legend’s favourite drinks – AD Negroni (Negroni with Champagne). They also enjoyed a fantastic selection of delectable canapes served by Executive Chef Wilfrid Hocquet, in addition to an oyster bar and caviar station. There was plenty of entertainment throughout the evening, including a mini concert by superstars PP and Bilkin.
The celebrations continued the next day, Thursday, 24 November, at the Michelin Guide Thailand 2023 star revelation ceremony held in The Athenee Hotel Bangkok. Blue by Alain Ducasse retained its star for the 3rd consecutive year, underlining the restaurant’s extraordinary multi-sensory journey of French cuisine rooted in a culinary vision of tradition and modernity, complemented by warm, friendly service and an exceptional wine cellar.
Bangkok foodies were in for an exclusive treat on Friday, 25 November, when the mentor and mentee curated a special four-hands lunch and dinner. The six-course menu included the rare opportunity for a meet-and-greet session with the culinary legend. The meal featured Chef Ducasse’s signature cookpot of Brittany Blue Lobster and Poulette de Bresse with white truffle from Alba and Albufera sauce. It also included Chef Wilfrid’s creation of Alaskan King Crab with gold caviar and Pigeon Pithiviers a la Monegasque.
This year has been a good year for Blue by Alain Ducasse. Earlier in January 2022, it was awarded the prestigious Le French Design 100 by Emmanuel Macron, President of the French Republic. Le French Design 100 is the only design prize in France that honours the international actions of its designers for their design projects around the world. In addition, in March, the restaurant was ranked No. 25 on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 2022, sponsored by San Pellegrino & Acqua Panna.
Champagne sailing conditions greet sailors on second day of Phuket King’s Cup
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2022
Blue skies, warm water and nice breeze greeted sailors today as they gathered off of Cape Promthep to compete in the second day of sailing at the 34th Phuket King’s Cup Regatta.
While the International Dinghy Classes finished four days or racing today, it was the second day of racing for the keelboats and multihulls. Race Officer Simon James sent the IRC Zero, and IRC One classes on a windward-leeward for their first race and a coastal race for their second while sending the IRC Premier Cruising, Charter Cruising and the Multihull classes off on a separate passage race.
The two TP52s (Team Hollywood and THA 72) are staging their own mini-Super Series in this regatta as Ray Roberts’ boat sailed to two victories today giving it five points and a one-point lead over Kevin Whitcraft’s THA 72 going into race day three. Windsikher managed a second in the first race but trails the TP52s with eleven points overall. Sarab Singh and Nick Burns’ crew seem to be feeling the effects of victory euphoria as they won and dominated the Raja Muda Selangor International Regatta just over a week ago.
The IRC One class had Garry Holt’s Let’s Get It On and Kazuki Kihara’s Char Chan flip flop first and second place in the two races the class sailed today. As such Let’s Get It On and Craig Douglas’ Ramrod sit tied at the top of the leader board with eight points with Char Chan trailing by a point. Morten Jakobsen’s smallish VXOne Hanuman XXXIX is holding its own against the bigger boats and sits in fourth spot with 10 points. Fifth place belongs to Matti Sepp’s Judy (19pts) with Craig Nichols Alright in last spot (25pts) as they did not finish the first race of the day.
The Thai vessel Pine Pacific expertly skipped by Ithinai Yingsiri won the Premier Cruising class narrowly beating Peter Cremers Shatoosh by less than two minutes on corrected time with Simon Piff’s Firstlight coming in 45 minutes later on corrected time. Pine Pacific and Shatoosh are tied for the lead in this class with three points followed by Firstlight with seven. Firstlight along with Ramrod and Windshihker made the trip up from Langkawi to compete in this regatta after recently sailing in Malaysia’s Raja Muda regatta, which is annually held two weeks before the Phuket King’s Cup.
The Charter Cruising Class saw a repeat placing of day one with Torben Kristensen’s Kinnon winning the race and leading the class with two points. Jakod Handte’s Fei Jian was second and remains in second overall with four points. Masami Yamashita’s Sunsail Inlova was third and stays in third with six points.
The Multihull OMR class saw Hermann Schwarz’ 2Fast4you win again beating Hang Chen’s ZOE by close to six minutes on corrected time, so 2Fast4you leads the class by two points.
A veteran of many King’s Cup campaigns, Sydney-based Craig Douglas, the co-owner of Ramrod, a Farr 40, reflects on what sets the Phuket King’s Cup apart from other sailing competitions: “It’s a fantastic event and very competitive. All the other regattas are like a rally: people are there for the journey, hotels and the food. But at King’s Cup, the sailors really thrash it out and take it to the next level. It’s a badge of honour to win it.
“The regatta is also very challenging: you can’t come into it in cruising mode because the handicap and the IRC rating will get you. If you are having a bad day, it’s not forgiving, you are either on good pace, or you will get punished. You need to race with a good and experienced crew.
“And the conditions: you usually get good wind, and if get splashed by water, it’s 25-28 degrees. If it rains, the rain is warm and you dry quickly. Once you hit the shore, you walk fifty metres up the beach to your hotel and you are surrounded by great food and people. Not many places can say that, it’s a great formula.”
Craig’s co-owner Gordon Ketelby owns another Farr 40 called Zen, which he keeps at the Middle Harbour Yacht Club in Sydney. The idea being to seamlessly swap sails, parts and crew between the two and it’s worked.
The International Dinghy Classes (Optimist Boys, Optimist Girls, Open ILCA4, ILCA6, ILCA 7, 420, 470, Skiff Boat and Open Skiff) finished racing today as 182 dinghies from Thailand, United Kingdom, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia and China saw action with an awards ceremony taking place at the north end of Kata Beach in the evening.
Thais did very well in the dinghy competitions as Chanatip Tongglum won the Optimist Boys and Prin Subying won the Optimist Girls class. In the Skiff Boat class Narisara Satta and Nichapa Waiwai of Thailand lead the pack. The Open ILCA4 was won by Kenan Tan of Singapore with fellow countrymen Khoo Zachary taking the Open ILCA6 division. The Open ILCA 7 saw Thai national Prakasit Hongpradab win with fellow Thais Paliga Poonpat and Chakkaphat Wiriyakitti winning the 420 class. The 470 class was captured by Navee Thamsoontorn and Panida Suksomporn of Thailand and the Open Skiff championship went to Anandi Chandavarkar of Indonesia.
The return of the King’s Cup has been a breath of fresh ocean air to the Kata Beach business community who perennially depend on Thai and foreign sailors to boost the local economy every December. But it’s been three long years since that happened so hotels, restaurants and shop owners are ecstatic to see sailors of Asia’s most prestigious regatta roaming the streets and cruising the waterways again.
Keelboats and multihulls spread over five classes are competing in the Asia’s longest-running and most prestigious regatta, held over five days racing through scenic courses amidst the beautiful Andaman Sea islands.
The Royal Awards Ceremony will be on December 10, 2022, at Beyond Resort Kata, Kata Beach, Phuket.
Sponsors of the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta include Kata Group, RMA Group, Haad Thip Pcl. and Workforce International.
8 best SEO agencies in Thailand with the best result and ROI
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2022
These days, SEO is one of the most popular online marketing practices that many marketers are interested in. SEO especially helps increase higher ranking rates organically and that is the most effective way that drives traffic into websites.
There is a saying that SEO is not too hard to understand from a scratch of knowledge, but there is a lot more to practice and to develop during each and every milestone of SEO in the making. Therefore, business owners and many marketers should be looking for the Best SEO Agency Bangkok to help the website and business grow to the fullest.
What is SEO?
SEO is short for Search Engine Optimization. It means any practice and process that you do to improve your website to be compatible for search engines such as Google, Bing, etc. and most importantly, for users’ experience. One more thing not to be missed, SEO is a non-paid practice!
The practice includes the big picture of what is called SEO Soup – which are great contents, technical stuff and quality link building (internal and external). However, there is a lot more to learn and apply for.
What is the goal of SEO?
The goal of SEO is to make your website visible and easily accessible to users from the search result page. To be honest, everyone that is evolved with SEO, a hundred percent, would want to have their website rank in the first position. According to the report from SmartInsight dated August 29, 2022, any contents with the first place ranking probably earn, on average, 39.6% of traffic while the second and third come up with only 18.4% and 10.1%. That means the rest have to share less than 32% of traffic! The number can be different across industries, but what a surprising fact!
Advantages of SEO for Business
When your website is shown on a higher rank of the search result page, especially on the first page, it will gradually open many doors of opportunity to your website and business.
● Save Cost
SEO not only helps your website invisible to users, but it also helps growing business while shrinking costs. When it comes to SEO, it is all about organic practices and organic results. It helps your website rank on top of the page without bidding for position. Money is saved!
● Form Brand Awareness
SEO opens your business door to your customers directly without forcing them. SEO aims to spread knowledge and information as much as possible across your customers’ curiosities, pain points and queries.
● Create a Competitive Advantage for You Business
SEO benefits your website and business more and more, compared to others in the market. When your SEO is on fire, in other words – your website is showing on top of the page non-paid, it gives more credibility to your brand. Most users tend to trust the first one that ranks more than any other.
● Open More Windows of Opportunity
SEO creates more opportunities and leads more sales to your business. According to the benefits above, SEO helps create brand awareness that leads to trustworthiness and eventually, what else if not sales!
● Reach More Customers
SEO helps spread your brand through any areas of your customers as mentioned above. Together with carefully crafted contents, SEO easily catches the attention of prospective and existing customers and converts them into real customers, and soon or later.
The 5 Problems In-House SEO Faces
As stated, SEO is not hard to learn but in the making it can be problematic if not in the right hands of experts like the best SEO agencies (listed below) who spend days and nights resolving various issues. Because to build credibility to your brand, maximize your website’s potential and cope with the change of algorithm updates takes a lot of effort and requires a lot of experience, if not, there are the problems you may face as in-house.
1. A Problem with Website’s Structure
Note that a website’s structure is one of the most crucial parts because it is a core you use to organize your website. It involves the url structure, paths, categories and many more that you want them to be on your website, first to serve the business purpose, then the search engine preference and last but not least, customers’ journey. Messing up with your website’s structure with the lack of experience can affect ranking badly.
2. No Specialists to Handle the Works
A lot of in-houses may have their works flooded over their desks and SEO is a work that needs time and details. It may be a burden to your team to create meaningful and in-detailed contents with beautiful images and helpful videos altogether. The result is predictable, low quality contents that decrease the reliability of your website and brand.
3. Waste of (Team’s) Energy, Time and Money
It is true that SEO is an organic practice that results in an organic performance (non-paid result) but in the process, it requires many specialists to do their own jobs – basically, writer specialists, seo specialists, technical specialists, website developers, graphic designers for example. Not to mention SEO tools where some are free but some are not, under various conditions.
4. Take a Lot of Time
It is no mistake when most SEO experts say, SEO is about time. More than the effort to spend, there is quite a big gap of time when you need to wait until you see the result. Because competing in the SEO field, you need to compete with at least 90 websites or maybe webpages to appear on the first page with no guarantee! But with experts from the Best SEO Agencies, it might take less!
5. It Is a Basic Requirement to Catch Up with Changes, All the Time!
SEO is in an area of digital marketing practice which, of course, can be changed overnight! In-houses may not have time to learn and catch up with tons of changes and that will definitely affect your performance badly. You will never know when you violate the rules if you can’t keep up with SEO news.

JBP joined forces with alliances, heading toward sustainable business development under “One World One Future Together”
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2022
Climate Change is causing severe environmental impacts and turbulence across the globe. Organizations and the general public are now focusing their attention on environmentally-friendly and sustainable business practices.
Mr. Sarawut Rachanakul, Chief Executive Officer of JBP International Paint and President of the Thai Paint Manufacturers Association, is one of the industry leaders to spearhead the company’s strong commitment in promoting sustainable business practices through words and actions rather than as a trend of doing business.
Realizing the impacts on health and the environment from the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic and PM 2.5 air pollution in Thailand two years ago, JBP International Paint is committed to solving the problems by introducing new high-quality, environmentally and health-friendly paint products and plastic paint containers for consumers with support from Srithai Superware, Thailand’s leading manufacturer to ensure corporate social responsibility of the product and for the Thai people.
On November 11, JBP International Paint Company Limited, Thailand’s leading manufacturer and distributor of the paint industry represented by Mr. Chongkol Rachanakul, Chairman of Executive Committee, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with key business alliances : Srithai Superware Public Company Limited, CRC Thai Watsadu Company Limited, and UAC Global Public Company Limited to collaborate on the “One World: One Future Together” project with aims to remediate global turbulence, reduce energy usage and greenhouse gases emission and announce readiness to ensure environmentally friendly business practices and foster Thailand’s economy toward sustainable growth.
Mr. Chongkol Rachanakul, Chairman of Executive Committee of JBP International Paint, said, “Sustainable development and sufficient economy philosophy are the core principles that our company upholds and promotes to everyone in the organization. We are concerned about the current environment issues so we want to promote the concept of the green supply chain that not only reduces environmental problems but also enhances our sustainable business practices to another level.”
Mr. Sarawut Rachanakul, Chief Executive Officer of JBP International Paint, said, “We are aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly over the next decade. We are setting goals toward the realization of carbon neutrality by switching or transitioning to lower carbon alternatives and developing innovative environmentally friendly technology. In addition, this will continue to play a big part in shaping product development in our industry which is good for consumers and the environment that will be the way to more sustainable production models in the future.”
Mr. Chaiwat Kulphattaravanich, Executive Director of Srithai Superware, said, “Our company’s core business principles are Environment Social and Governance (ESG). We are committed to delivering environmentally friendly products and services that help to reduce greenhouse gases emission for the better quality of life of the people and the planet.”
Mr. Suthisarn Chirathivat, Chief Executive Officer of CRC Thai Watsadu, said, “At CRC Thai Watsadu, we are ready to help deliver positive values to the society and environment by reducing energy consumption.

Thailand’s internet service provider, Total Access Communication (DTAC), in partnership with Telenor and Google Cloud, has created B-LAB, its first online solutions platform, aimed at helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to successfully navigate the digital transformation process.
Siripong Nokthanok, strategic vice president of SMEs sales division, told a group of journalists on Tuesday that B-LAB is a one-stop solutions platform for assisting SMEs in connecting, learning, and expanding their businesses.
“It is the end result of our research into our SME clients’ problems. By giving them access to a knowledge hub, customised software as a service, and mobile connectivity solutions, B-LAB is intended to empower them to fully digitalise their businesses and achieve profitable growth,” he noted.

According to Lars Kristian Straatviet, vice president of B2B digital sales, one of the biggest barriers to businesses going digital is a lack of relevant competencies and skills.
DTAC has built a rich community ecosystem on B-LAB in collaboration with Telenor and Google Cloud. The platform is simple to use and meets individual needs with a 24/7 Thai support team, he said.

“That means they [SMEs] can consult our service team at any time, from anywhere. We do not, however, want to be an open marketplace like Amazon Web Service. We simply want to focus on SMEs in order to provide them with unique added value,” Lars said.
He added that B-LAB’s priority now is to be a one-stop SMEs and e-commerce platform with the best software solutions, and to be learning partners with their SMEs in order to help them sustain their growth.
B-LAB can be used by sole proprietorships, such as online retailers, freelancers, content creators, lawyers, accountants, or consultants, as well as businesses that work in teams, Lars said.
The package price starts at 92.50 baht per month per user and there is also a 50% discount available for new business owners, he said. For those who are hesitant to subscribe, DTAC is offering a free 30-day trial.
Siripong believes that with over 3 million SMEs in Thailand, B-LAB can meet demand and see significant growth. He added that because B-LAB is the first of its kind in the region, Thailand will serve as a great model for the rest of the region and the world.
