Oped, Vitit Muntarbhorn, Published on 19/01/2022
» The advent of Covid-19 has accentuated digitalisation and its close linkage with automation, algorithms, and artificial intelligence ("the three A's").

» Chamnan Yuvaboon, born 100 years ago this year and still going strong, is a man with a distinguished background. He was an outstanding student — the country's first to complete a doctorate degree from Thammasat University's political science faculty in 1953.
