Published
AIS has released the 2026 Thailand Digital Wellness Index report, which provides interesting findings regarding the technology usage behaviors of Thai people in the modern era. The study reveals that Thailand's digital wellness score this year is at its highest level in the past four years, reflecting that Thai people have a better understanding and are continuously adapting to digital usage more effectively.
Although the overall index has improved, the report also highlights a significant finding that approximately one in six Thai citizens still requires further development of digital skills and knowledge to use technology more safely and efficiently, particularly in dealing with cyber threats and filtering information online.
This survey focuses on measuring the ability to use technology creatively and safely, which is a key factor in driving the country's digital economy and society. The data obtained will be useful for both the public and private sectors in planning to promote digital skills across all population groups to reduce the technology gap in Thai society.
In summary, while Thai people have improved their digital usage skills to a satisfactory level, continuous skill development remains necessary so that everyone can fully and safely benefit from technology in the long term. This is considered a crucial step in building a strong and sustainable digital society for Thailand moving forward.
