Strategic Vision for Thailand’s Semiconductor Industry

The Thai government has established the National Semiconductor and Advanced Electronics Industry Policy Committee, also called the National Semiconductor Board, as a major step toward strengthening Thailand’s position in the regional semiconductor market. Chaired by Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, this new board will outline a roadmap to drive investment, develop a skilled workforce, and build a robust semiconductor supply chain.

Key Objectives of Thailand’s Semiconductor Board

The National Semiconductor Board will serve as a strategic driver for the industry, with several focused objectives:

  • Setting Industry Policies: The board will establish policy directions that align with Thailand’s goals of becoming a semiconductor industry leader in the region.
  • Roadmap for Investment: The board aims to make Thailand an attractive destination for foreign investment through incentives and supportive policies.
  • Developing Skilled Workforce: Preparing a well-trained workforce to meet the growing demand for semiconductor expertise is a high priority.
  • Supply Chain Expansion: Ensuring that Thailand has the necessary infrastructure and resources to support a sustainable semiconductor supply chain.

Structure and Leadership of the Semiconductor Board

The National Semiconductor Board brings together key leaders in government and industry, with Finance Minister Pichai Chunhavajira serving as deputy chairman. It includes high-ranking officials from various ministries, including Foreign Affairs, Higher Education, Digital Economy, and Industry. Additionally, representatives from the Federation of Thai Industries and National Economic and Social Development Council contribute to the board’s comprehensive approach to industry growth.

Driving Foreign Investment Through Incentives

To attract foreign investment in semiconductor technology, the Board of Investment’s (BOI) Competitiveness Enhancement Fund will provide promotional privileges. These include:

  • Corporate Tax Exemptions: Incentivizing businesses with tax benefits to stimulate growth.
  • Tariff Waivers: Removal of tariffs on imported machinery and raw materials to ease operational costs.
  • Financial Support: Financial assistance for companies investing in semiconductor production, contributing to Thailand’s economic resilience and technological growth.

Why This Initiative Matters for Thailand’s Economy

Semiconductors are essential to modern electronics, powering everything from smartphones and computers to electric vehicles and artificial intelligence. By establishing the National Semiconductor Board, Thailand positions itself as a significant player in the global electronics supply chain, addressing both national and regional needs for advanced technology and economic diversification.

The Road Ahead: Thailand’s Commitment to Semiconductor Development

This initiative reflects Thailand’s ambition to strengthen its technological infrastructure and advance its standing in the advanced electronics sector. With the board’s clear strategy for policy alignment and a strong emphasis on skilled workforce development, Thailand is set to emerge as a semiconductor industry leader, supporting regional and global demands for advanced electronics solutions.

Conclusion
Through this strategic push led by the National Semiconductor Board, Thailand is shaping a future where it can be a competitive, resilient force in the technology sector, fostering sustainable growth for the national economy and benefiting industries reliant on semiconductor technology.
