ส.อ.ท. ร่วมประชุมหารือการเตรียมความพร้อมของไทยสู่การประเมินเข้าเป็นสมาชิก OECDFTI Participates in Meeting to Prepare Thailand for OECD Membership Evaluation

On Tuesday, March 10, 2026, Dr. Phaek Nilsuwan Leelarasmee, Vice President of the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), represented the organization at a meeting with relevant agencies to prepare for coordination with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) committee, which will evaluate Thailand's membership application at Meeting Room 521, Building 5 of the National Economic and Social Development Council.

The purpose of this meeting was to discuss and determine the responsible agencies for coordinating with the OECD committee related to Thailand's accession process. Government agencies and relevant organizations were assigned to oversee and coordinate with the OECD committee in various policy areas to prepare for the technical review process, in which Thailand will be evaluated by 25 OECD committees.

Furthermore, the evaluation will consider the compliance of Thailand's laws, policies, and practices with OECD legal standards and tools, while providing recommendations to support the improvement of the country's regulations and regulatory mechanisms in accordance with international practices.

Currently, Thailand is in the process of applying for OECD membership, and relevant public and private sectors are jointly preparing in various aspects to support regulatory improvements and elevate the country's economic standards. Thailand aims to push for membership in the OECD by 2028, which will be a crucial mechanism for enhancing the country's economic standards, building investor confidence, and increasing Thailand's competitiveness in the global economic system.
