Nataphol Teepsuwan, Minister of Education, said that in the past year he visited various schools and institutions across the country to receive feedback and opinions about issues concerning the education system. The problem is straightforward, Thai education has yet to move much at all," he said. Mr Nataphol said as the leader of education, the ministry will become an enabler by building an education system that answers the demands of a competitive labour force. The platform could "unlock" the potential of the Thai education system by bridging the gap between state education agencies and employers.
