‘วิรไท’ แนะลดขนาดภาครัฐ ชี้ไม่ตอบโจทย์ ‘โลกใหม่’

“TDRI” affirms that the public administration like a boss does not meet the needs of future work. Proposes downsizing the government sector to face the “new world”. To work with all sectors to use technology to solve corruption problems, overthrow the “Hua auction system” and try to change the old laws that are too old to be used in the future. I hope to see the new generation ruling the country.

Mr. Veerathai Santiprabhob, Director of the Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI) said in seminar TDRI annual public virtual conference 2021 “Challenges and Imagination of the New World: A New Model for Developing Countries After COVID-19” that in the past people saw the government’s weakness. poorly carried out long-term damage in particular the import of vaccines. Due to the fact that the government is the main operating system that drives the country with a direct responsibility for formulating policies, collecting taxes for the administration and creating security for the country hence the ability to develop more

aside from that Technology change Getting the current government administration not to answer the question The state can be trapped in a working culture. The structure cannot cope with the crisis. even normal operations must become more and more demanding As the administrative framework of a country grows, it becomes more complicated. Contacting government officials is more difficult. corruption has become common so the resources available have been limited. may be taken in any person’s pocket and should therefore be scaled down unfairly

“You will see many State administered projects do not meet the needs of society. The world before us is prone to volatility. epidemic crisis climate change Thailand is another country that is considered to be very risky. There is a weather dependent population in the agricultural sector that needs to have an understanding of the changes in the future world. The state does not accept risks such as late booking of vaccines. slow to open up the country Should Use Digital to Help Bring Justice to Add New Stories Offer new generations, ages 35-45, the opportunity to transform the government sector. Many countries see the role of young people who will be exposed to climate change for a long time. “

Mr. Wiratai said what the government must have is always looking forward to mastering new challenges, not focusing on the past but maintaining the current state must be smaller in comparison to the economic system taxation, which does not permanently burden society. It enables equal and free competition, and the law that gives the state power has long been established and applied. should be modified for use in the current era and look to the future Must work effectively with other sectors of society who may be more competent and knowledgeable, e.g. B. corporate groups, educational institutions. or civil society is important in working together Changing the old government that looks like a boss is not doing justice to the demands of future work.

In addition, the government sector needs to be highly flexible. Stick to crises because the country has to face diversity and the future will see more The state has to be efficient whileHousehold debtbe reduced, and the state itself must not be a time bomb. This can be seen in the executive’s shift mechanism. to prevent bad news from causing more and more problems so the state must dare to be fair Solve the inequality problem

However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. because government problems are problems that have constantly accumulated multiple mechanisms connected Design a drive system with at least 4 poles that play an important role.

1. Politics Because it plays an important role Serious reform of the system of government is the most important thing. It turns out that politics tends to be short-term. Appointment of government officials to answer additional policy questions The ability should be viewed as a long-term impact. must create awareness in order to have intention

2. The structure of the state labor system like state-owned companies to good governance mechanisms Focus on the process, not the results. need a new design Don’t focus on documents Many bureaucratic systems focus on documents. The work process must be transparent, verifiable and highly relevant for others.

3. Hardened Law Some stories can be very old. does not react to the new world Officials want to adjust their work but are sticking to the old law Thailand is moving very slowly and compared to other places

4. Motivation Influences the behavior of government officials, limited rewards, avoidance of risks. Avoiding change Many authorities have improved state mechanisms. Most of them are at the director general level. But it cannot be changed because of many steps. Therefore, an appropriate balance has to be found, e.g. B. the search for malefactors. Corruption must have an incentive to deal with risks. can appoint a deputy prime minister deal with legal matters directly Must listen to the voices of those concerned

However Rethinking the Government The change will have likes and dislikes, so the government sector shouldn’t be big. The role of government in policing, monitoring, auditing, supporting and delivering services using large, fixed budgets. Have to admit that today’s state-owned companies are not as competent as the private sector. But there is a handicap when it comes to privileges. The state should reduce its role in all matters. should create competition so that people can use cheap things; That is set by the government to do like social security, the government doesn’t have to set up the hospital by itself, should the private sector join, let people choose the hospital they want to use. The government only controls the budget. The private sector will compete to build the power of service users to make decisions, etc.
