Thai Commerce Ministry Seeks Public Opinion on Draft Decree for Enhanced Media Services for Persons with Disabilities

The Thai Ministry of Commerce has launched a public consultation for a draft ministerial decree aimed at expanding the scope of media services available to persons with disabilities. This move is part of the Thai government's efforts to improve information access and build a more inclusive society. The draft decree intends to add organizations that provide media services for persons with disabilities. This is expected to make it easier for individuals with disabilities to access information and broaden their opportunities for social participation. Specific service details and the types of organizations that will be included are anticipated to be clarified soon. The public consultation is being conducted to gather feedback from stakeholders and the general public, which will help in finalizing the draft decree. In recent years, Thailand has increasingly recognized the elimination of information gaps and consideration for diverse individuals as social issues, particularly with the advancement of digitalization. This initiative reflects this ongoing trend. Source: MGR Online (Business)
