It is therefore essential to give equal priority to adaptation strategies \u2014 particularly for developing countries like Thailand, where both mitigation and adaptation efforts rely heavily on technology and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\u201cIn recent years, Thailand has faced increasing challenges in sustaining its competitiveness in areas such as labor, exports, and tourism. To address this, the government introduced the Bio-Circular-Green Economy (BCG) Model, capitalizing on the country\u2019s rich biological and cultural diversity. This policy focuses on four strategic sectors: agriculture and food, energy and materials, health and medicine, and tourism and the creative economy,\u201d Dr. Surachai explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also highlighted Thailand\u2019s efforts to promote sustainable agriculture, driven by three core components: weather forecasting and climate warning systems, precision farming technologies, and genetic engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIn addition, Dr. Surachai addressed opportunities in advanced biotechnology, covering areas such as crop improvement, organic fertilizers, enzymes, bioprocesses, advanced medical products, and bio-based materials. He noted that Thailand has launched a 10-year strategic plan for synthetic biology (SynBio), positioning it as a key platform technology for developing innovative products and services that contribute to sustainable economic growth. The strategy is designed to build a supportive ecosystem for research, promote industry adoption, strengthen the national knowledge base, enhance technological capabilities, and unlock new market opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On 5 June 2025, Dr. Surachai Sathitkunarat, President o […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":34999,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[2032,1837],"class_list":["post-34998","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","tag-bcg-en","tag-climatechange-en"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/MHESI-NXPO-highlights-Thailands-climate-policies-and-BCG-model.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/author\/adminsti\/"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/MHESI-NXPO-highlights-Thailands-climate-policies-and-BCG-model.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34998","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34998"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34998\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35011,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34998\/revisions\/35011"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34999"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34998"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34998"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34998"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DR.Anuson-1536x1024-1-1024x683.jpg\")
