Bangkok (VNA) – The Thai government has is now seeking to revise the civil and commerce code on startups development, which is a pillar to the Thailand 4.0 economic model.
The revisions were approved by the Cabinet after the Department of Business Development held public forums to get feedback from government agencies, the private sector, and startups.
The Secretariat of the Cabinet will forward the bill to the Office of the Council of State. If approved, the bill will be sent to the National Legislative Assembly.
