Abstract

This study presents the status of Information Communication Technology (ICT) of Thailand by ranking and comparing the data from the Networked Readiness Index 2012 and Digital economy rankings and scores, 2009 and 2010 of ASEAN member countries. Also, to demonstrate how government Information Communication Technology (ICT) Master Plan should be integrated in order to gain the full benefit. Thailand ICT master plan (Plan #1) established in 2002 is used for the analysis. The expert peer review technique was used to evaluate and prioritize the projects into the high, mid, and low impact project. The growth of ICT in Thailand can be considered normal or average after measuring against worldwide indices, lowest in infrastructure and digital content, and ICT development does not seem to be a priority for the government. Thus, Thailand should develop an intensive planning of ICT Master Plan implementation and integration. This paper suggests that every government ICT project proposal asking for the budget should link with each other and fit with the overall ICT strategy. A proper classification and understanding of each ICT project can help the government allocate accurate budget that fit with the outcomes.
