The Industry Ministry is working with Total Access Communication Plc (DTAC), the country's third-biggest mobile operator by subscriber base, to bring digital power to 152 villages across the country to level up their local tourism and entrepreneurship under the Creative Industry Village (CIV) project.
The memorandum of understanding for the CIV project was signed yesterday with a determination to spur people's income and local economies with a target of 250 million baht in revenue.
The project is also meant to tackle a pandemic-induced decline in earnings in local communities and tourism.
