1. Industry Overview
The Thai ICT market is growing at one of the highest rates in the region.
With a population of over 60 million and the penetration rate of mobile and
Internet continuing to grow, Thailand has become a very attractive market.
Thailand is also becoming increasingly affluent and disposable incomes are
growing. This has resulted in increased expenditure on IT products.
In regards to IT infrastructure, the low fixed line broadband penetration (11
per cent in 2009) is compensated by the Kingdom’s high mobile telephone
penetration, estimated at 97 per cent in 2009. In the capital, Bangkok,
mobile telephone penetration is above 120 per cent. The Thai Government
has set plans for implementing mobile broadband to compensate for the
low fixed-line broadband penetration, estimated to two per cent in 2009, in
order to catch up on neighboring countries and this gives opportunity to
introduce solutions that have already been tested in other markets.
However, Thailand’s ICT market faces challenges as it enters a period of
liberalization. The government has set up an independent regulatory body,
the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to remove regulatory
matters from the former government state owned enterprise, TOT Public
Company Limited (TOT) and Communication Authority of Thailand (CAT)
area of responsibility. NTC is attempting to provide a framework for free
and fair competition and has transformed some areas. This process has
even resulted in the delay of 3G rollout in the country.

Thailand’s Board of Investment (BOI) is focusing on ICT and software
design by offering special tax incentives towards this sector. BOI’s special
incentives to investors in the ICT sector, include maximum tax incentives
for high-technology investment projects totaling more than US$0.9
Million(Baht30 million) and producing products not yet made in Thailand,
and exemption from import duties on raw materials and components used
for producing electronic goods, just to name a few.
This combined with BOI’s Regional Operating Headquarters incentives has
resulted in excellent opportunities for setting up ICT services and software
headquarter/competency centers and shared services.

7. Market trends
Trends and Competitive Environment
Thailand's information technology market is expected to return to normal
growth in 2010, with the hardware market forecast to grow by 20 per cent
and the software market by 17 to 20 per cent. There will be two major
factors driving IT-market growth next year: the Intel Core i series central
processing units (CPUs) - the Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 - and Microsoft's
Windows 7, the latest version of the ubiquitous operating system. Both of
them will create a big impact on the corporate and consumer IT markets.
IT purchases are expected to grow next year in the corporate segment due
to the change of core technologies - both operating systems and CPUs -
and a rise in the "refreshment cycle", after companies had slowed their IT-
replacement programmes for two years because of the economic crisis.
The coming of Windows 7 and the Intel Core i family will help to raise the
total IT market next year beyond this year's level (when it grew by only 10
to 15 per cent).
Intel Thailand is planning to spend "a significant marketing budget" next
year to promote its new Core i family of CPUs. The Core i3, Core i5, and
Core i7 will supersede Intel's current Celeron, Pentium, Core2 Duo and
Core 2 Quad CPUs. Any Malaysian IT product that supports these
specifications will have opportunity to further grow market presence in
Thailand.
39. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 39
39
The rapid increase in Internet usage, a widespread expansion of social
networking and cloud computing could also influence towards greater IT
purchases of data centre services. These trends are not only occurring in
the Thai market, but also throughout the world.
The overall IT market in Thailand next year is expected to grow by 20 per
cent. Sales of laptops, including notebooks and netbooks, are expected to
be 30 per cent higher than they were this year, while sales of desktop PCs
will grow at a steady rate of about 5 per cent. Thailand's computer market
is dominated by the consumer segment, accounting for about 60 per cent
of sales. This domination is expected to grow next year to about 65 per
cent of the market.
The market is expected to have distinguished segmentation, with first-time
buyers, primary and secondary schools making up a big percentage of the
desktop PC market. The market for notebooks and netbooks will comprise
small- and medium-sized enterprises and high school and university
students. Demographically, the main market for notebooks and netbooks
will be concentrated on Bangkok and large provinces and that for desktop
PCs, upcountry.
Experts reckon next year there will be a clearer price difference between
netbooks and notebooks. The netbook price should be lower than
Bt10,000, or US$299, but in Thai market we can see netbooks priced
between US$299 and US$448. That is quite a blurred market segment,
with low-entry notebooks. This year's overall netbook market is expected
40. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 40
40
to be 5 to 8 per cent of the total computer market. Next year, there may be
a minor downward movement in the netbook market, which is expected to
be only 5 to 7 per cent of the total computer market because the price of
low-entry notebooks will fall to about US$415.
The software market is forecast to grow by 17 to 20 per cent next year
because of economic recovery. IT spending by businesses is expected to
rebound and new technologies will drive new applications to the market. In
2010, Thailand's software market will grow in a linear fashion, and it will
grow higher than this year's 13 to 15 per cent. Next year, the global IT
market will be back to normal and the Thai market is expected to respond
in similar fashion.
In Thailand, the SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises] are one of the
growth sectors, while the government's massive economic stimulus
package (covering 2009 to 2011) also includes a significant IT budget.
Internet market trends
The Internet penetration rate in Thailand is one of the highest in the region.
In Bangkok, the increasing number of Broadband internet subscribers offer
opportunities for online applications and content delivery.
The expansion of applications provided over the IP Technology network,
will offer opportunities for leveraging new services and applications at a
lower cost delivered over Broadband Internet. IP technology allows
41. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 41
41
flexibility and is cost effective for new applications developed, including
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), home monitoring and securities
applications. In order to reduce the cost of business communications,
Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Voice over Internet Protocal (VOIP)
applications are predicted to become more popular.
Wireless Broadband technology is an alternative technology that is
expected to capture potential mobile users of PDA phones. This will allow
operators to offer high speed Internet access over smart phones together
with customized applications.
Mobile Market Trends
The penetration rate for mobiles in Thailand was approximately 70 per cent
in year 2008, and growing as a very strong rate. Mobile-to-mobile non-
voice services are an emerging new business opportunity for operators
allowing them to increase revenue by providing customized products. Top
revenue for non-voice services is through SMS, Calling Melody, GPRS and
download services from portals.
Video ring tones are another emerging trend for non-voice services in the
future. This service is expected to be a top seller for multimedia service in
the next three to four years.
The emergence of 3G technologies will impact on the wireless Internet
broadband provided by mobile companies in Thailand. Mobility features
42. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 42
42
with new wireless applications will be one of the key drivers of the market.
Mass customization of wireless applications for mass consumers segment
is the area for potential growth.
M-Commerce services in Thailand have mostly been provided to the
financial sector. Mobile payment and confirmation are the most common
services available. The application for financial transactions will depend on
the network infrastructure and security issues.
Thailand is one of the leading medical tourism destinations in South East
Asian region. The industry is driven by private hospitals particularly in
Bangkok and major tourist cities in Thailand. Private hospitals in Thailand
have adopted relatively sophisticated technology in order to improve the
quality of its service as medical tourism in Thailand is expected to grow
strongly in the coming years.
The business opportunities in medical tourism for Malaysian companies in
Thailand are in the following areas:
• State-of-the-art technology and medical innovation i.e. Virtual
medical technology;
• Healthcare Business Solutions, i.e. Hospital portal, relationship
management, work flow and document management. Bumrungrad
hospital for example has implemented the hospital information
management system to deploy electronic medical records and
digital radiology; and
43. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 43
43
• Emergency Services i.e. managing and designing the emergency
services.
8. Challenges
It is estimated that the ICT market in 2009 will grow at slightly over five per
cent. The computer services cluster is expected to be the fastest growing
area. The opportunities for Malaysian companies are available provided
they are able to manage some of the inherent problems existent in
Thailand’s ICT sector. In the case of services sub-sector, the country faces
the problem of high staff turnover, which consequently adds to the
personnel costs. The fact that it is also difficult to find skilled manpower
with English speaking competency adds to the costs.
For Malaysian companies which want to set up operations in Thailand, it
basically needs to do joint-ventures with Thai-companies as under
Thailand’s Foreign Business Act, all companies in Thailand with some
exceptions (e.g if they are under the BOI’s programme) should be at least
51 per cent Thai-owned.
In terms of competition, the possibility of getting Government contracts
directly is remote. It has to be done through Thai-companies. That will
involve creative contractual arrangements. Thai Government is also
promoting local developers and as such currently there is a growing pool of
home-grown technologies and products which are winning market share
among Thai consumers who are not too brand-conscious – which is
44. THAI MARKET FOR ICT PRODUCTS P a g e | 44
44
probably Malaysian suppliers key target group for retail products with
Malaysian brands that does not have strong existing brand.
