Smart City Spotlight: Bangkok
As a primate city, Bangkok – Thailand’s largest city – is the foremost potential smart city in the country. It was recently inducted into the first cohort of the ASEAN Smart Cities Network (ASCN) in Singapore last April.
Thailand has taken positive steps towards realising a digital economy and the development of smart cities is a priority. This is in line with the government’s Thailand 4.0 initiative which aims to see the country prosper as a high-income nation with an economy dependent on innovation and value-based industries.
