Thailand's Board of Investment said on Wednesday (5th) that it has approved investment projects worth THB958 billion (approximately USD29 billion), led by a plan from TikTok System (Thailand) Co. to expand its data infrastructure. The move underscores Thailand's ambition to position itself as a regional hub for artificial intelligence and cloud services.

According to the statement, TikTok-related projects are valued at THB842 billion and will involve adding servers and expanding data storage and processing facilities in Bangkok and nearby Samut Prakan and Chachoengsao provinces. The plan also includes digital literacy and e-commerce training programs.
