00:00 [the government] has been delayed for nearly three months.
00:07 It's been a long time.
00:08 But the government hasn't been re-elected yet.
00:10 But recently, the BOI has said
00:15 that even though the government was delayed,
00:18 it didn't affect the investments of foreigners in Thailand.
00:24 Because they see that the investors are more concerned about the economy.
00:28 The BOI's secretary, Mr. Narit Thertsathiarasak,
00:34 attended the The Nation seminar yesterday
00:37 and talked about the delay in the government's next steps.
00:41 He said that it shouldn't affect the confidence of foreign investors
00:46 because the investors who are moving or expanding their production
00:50 are long-term investors who have plans to build factories in Thailand
00:54 and who are concerned about the economy.
00:59 They are concerned about the infrastructure and the people.
01:03 The investors are concerned about many things.
01:08 As I said, the politics is important,
01:10 but they are more concerned about the economy.
01:13 But is politics and economy related?
01:15 It's a link, Mr. Ice.
01:17 That's right.
01:18 There may be some consequences.
01:19 We'll have to wait and see if the government is finalized in August.
01:26 We'll see if we have expectations.
01:28 What I want the new government to focus on
01:32 is to improve the competitiveness of Thailand.
01:34 There are developments in the skills and skills of Thai workers.
01:38 If there are not enough workers,
01:40 there will be a wide opening for foreign talent.
01:44 It will also make it easier to invest in the law.
01:48 There will be obstacles, but we will fix them.
01:51 In addition, we will develop the infrastructure,
01:55 especially in the field of EEC.
01:58 Investment is a long-term plan.
02:02 Most investors are concerned about the economy.
02:07 Thailand has a strong point in this regard.
02:10 It's about infrastructure, supply chain,
02:14 and ready-to-use equipment.
02:17 It can be used to invest in the target industry.
02:21 As for the political, it's a short-term plan.
02:24 It doesn't affect the business.
02:27 So these investors still have confidence in Thailand's potential.
02:32 They are still moving forward with the investment plan.
