People in society have experienced working and conducting transactions through electronic systems and various information systems that provide convenience. This is a tangible digital technology and innovation that changes the way we all live. In today's world, many organizations are rapidly moving technology. In providing services, government agencies and the business sector must adapt and change their work to digital formats in order to be as efficient as possible. Therefore, the government emphasizes the use of technology together with decentralized administration to increase efficiency, improve the work of the government to become a digital government, and enable people to receive services from the government.

Therefore, the government emphasizes developing the potential of the people and government personnel to have skills and be able to adapt to digital technology that is constantly changing.

The Prime Minister then walked over to greet the students of Rajsima Wittayalai School who were sitting outside the building because the building was full, and took a photo with the Prime Minister, which made the students feel happy. Before leaving the convention center, a group of small-scale chicken farmers in Korat came to hand over a letter asking the Prime Minister to help take care of farmers in a comprehensive manner, including chicken feed, which is expensive at 600 baht per bag. If the government helps reduce the cost of feed and salt to 300-400 baht, the farmers will be able to survive. The Prime Minister assigned Mr. Prasit, the owner of the area, to take action before continuing his mission in the afternoon.-314.-Thai New s Agency Source: Thai News Agency
