Main Article Content
Abstract
Digital inequality in Thailand is a significant issue that impacts education, economy, and society, particularly among low-income populations and those in remote areas. This problem creates gaps in access to information and opportunities for development, adversely affecting quality of life and economic growth. Therefore, addressing this issue is crucial for fostering a more equitable society where everyone has access to technology. Proposed solutions include developing infrastructure, enhancing digital skills, and fostering collaboration among all sectors. By addressing digital inequality, Thailand can stimulate economic growth and create a peaceful society characterized by equality and inclusivity.
