NBTC secretary-general exits post with parting adviceNational Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) secretary-general Takorn Tantasith put forward several key agenda items, including 5G adoption promotion, the smart hospital project, over-the-top (OTT) platform development and Thailand as a global work-from-home hub, to the national 5G committee for consideration before he left the post on Tuesday. He has been chosen as the principal expert for the national 5G committee and the National Digital Economy and Society Committee (NDESC). He said the national 5G committee should zero in on 5G tech as a way to shore up the sagging economy. Second, efforts must be made to pursue the smart hospital project through collaboration between the government and related parties. Mr Takorn said Siriraj Hospital has agreed to drive towards the smart hospital concept as a pilot healthcare facility.
