Lottery solution for old-age securityA man points to some lottery tickets for sale at Khok Wua intersection, Ratchadamnoen Avenue, in the capital. As Thailand rapidly ages, one of its challenges is how to encourage the poor to save for old-age security. How to convince them to shift their lottery money to long-term savings they can fall upon in old age when they can no longer work? Another measure is to help the lottery buyers become aware of how they could spend the money more wisely. The government should also increase distribution channels to make it easy for them to save through savings lotteries.
