  1. The Use of ICT Indicators for Monitoring ICT Development:Thailand Experiences presented byChadamas ThuvasethakulNECTECThailand

  2. The need to have information/indeces to monitor the progress of ICT Master Plan implementation The need to have indeces that are conformed to international standards to compare and benchmark with others (such as GCI, NRI, DAI etc.) The need to unify ICT indicators which have been scatterred so that they can be used in policy decision making on a continual basis (Prime Minister’s initiative on the Operation Center – PMOC, MOC, DOC) GCI = Global Competitiveness Index (World Economic Forum) NRI = Network Readiness Index (World Economic Forum)DAI = Digital Access Index (International Telecommunication Union) Why do we need ICT indicators?

  3. Internationally-harmonized Statistical / measurement tools that are Simple to use Broadly cover diverse environment Sufficiently balanced (i.e., covers social/economic, supply side/demand side, etc.) Sensitive enough to reflect differences between societies What kinds of indicators are we looking for to assess the Information Society ?

  4. National NeedsMonitoring the progress ofICT Master Plan implementation

  5. 3. Reform ICT Research & Development Strategies in the ICT Master Plan 4. Raise potential infrastructure for future Competitiveness 7. E-Government กับการ 1. Promotionof Thai ICT Industry 6. ICT for SMEs 2. ICT for better Quality of Life 5. Develop entrepreneurships towards export expansion

  6. (1) Index of the ICT contribution to the economy e. g. ICT Growth, Employment (2) Index of the competitiveness of the country's ICT industry such as ratio of ICT expenditures to GDP, share of Thai software industry in the world market (3) Index of role of ICT in community development e.g. value of local content, amount of local traffic in relation to total Internet access, the increase in Thai-content Web pages (4) Index of role of ICT in human resource development such as the use of e-learning, and availability of ICT tools and experts in both formal and non-formal education Indicators to Assess Overall Successof the Master Plan

  7. Number of qualified researchers, software developers, and certified professional developers Total value of government IT projects in which Thai entrepreneurs are involved Government's IT budget (for both hardware and software) Expansion of software market in the country Total value of exported software Total value of exported ICT products Ratio of domestic software development and open-source software systems to total value of software market in each year Increase in number of software developers and market capitalization Decrease in imported software Etc. Strategy 1 Promotion of Thai ICT Industry (Examples – for other strategies, consult chapter 7, ICT Master Plan)

  8. Has the objective to develop a comprehensive ICT indicators database that allow for an assessment of the country’s progress on many aspects of the information society. The project also aims to set up a systematic mechanism in collecting, analyzing, and disseminating a core list of ICT indicators on a continual basis. These indicators to be put on-line at MICT Operations Center and the Prime Minister Operations Center, to help in policy decision process Unified ICT Indicators Project

  9. A working team - partnership between NECTEC, Ministry of Science and Technology and NSO, Ministry of Information and Communication Technology since August 2003. Collaboration with others including -National Economic and Social Development Board, Ministry of Education, TOT Corporation, CAT Telecom etc. Making Indicators available

  10. Review existing lists of ICT indicators, such as, OECD, ASEAN e-readiness, UNCTAD, ICT Master Plan, etc.. Holding consultative sessions.. 133 are identified to be included in the core list 133 indicators divided into 9 categories Methodologies

  11. 9 categories ICT human resources (30) ICT Market (28) Internet (22) ICT use in the government (20) Telecommunications (10) E-Commerce (9) ICT R&D and patents (7) General macroeconomic indeces (6) Broadcasting (1) Methodologies (2)

  12. Of 133 indicators, 94 has clear definition, or can assume a proxy/proxies for that particular indicator, whereas 39 does not have either clear definition, available indeces, and agengies that are responsible Of 94, only 63 has data available or can reasonable assume proxy/proxies Methodologies (3)

  13. Staged approach: Start with the existing data Add data which can be derived or calculated from existing data Conduct new surveys for the indicators which we have never collected before (started in 2001, full scale in 2004) Further research for suitable indicators and methodology Making Indicators available

  14. Thailand ICT Indicators 2003-2004 Thailand ICT Indicator Series I(October 2003) Thailand ICT Indicator 2005(February 2005) ICT Uptake:Thailand in the Information Age(July 2004) Presented ICT indicators in 9 areas presentedICT indicators in 9 areas 1. Telecommunications 2. Internet 3. Broadcasting 4. e-Commerce 5. ICT Market/Industry 6. ICT Human Resource 7. ICT in Government Sector 8. R&D Patents 9. Regulatory Framework 1. Telecommunications 2.

  16. International Cooperation onICT Indicators NECTEC has cooperated with theCenter of the International Cooperation for Computerization (CICC), Japan to organizeThe Third Asian Forum for Information Technology (October2004)

  17. Thailand has been active in cooperation within ASEAN under ASEAN TelMin/TelSOM to develop a core list of ICT indicators (already endorsed by TelMIN) as follows: Infrastucture (13, 2) Trade (5, 0) Qualifications (5, 1) The ICT sector (11, 4) Business’s readiness and use of ICT (12, 2) E-Government (12, 4) Household’s and individual’s readiness and use of ICT (4, 5) Use of ICTs in schools (0, 2) Patents (0, 3) Total approx. 62 core indicators and 23 suppl. indicators ASEAN Core List of ICT Indicators

  18. Data availability: scattered data in various agencies, differing frequency, differing definitions  consultation and consensus needed to develop a common understanding Need to increase awareness and recognition of the importance of ICT indicators  have to convince them that some can be used as their KPI measures..top-down endorsement at the policy-level may also be needed Challenges & Lessons Learned

  19. Need to increase awareness and recognition of the importance of ICT indicators among general public and industry so that they are willing to cooperate in the process to develop the indicators Determining the core list is an essential step in order to capture a full coverage of ICT development within the country. Each indicator should have a clear purpose and relate to information needed for policy decision Capacity building of personnel as well as international collaboration remains the key in this endeavor. Challenges & Lessons Learned

  20. Study to conceptualize and collect indicators to monitor the impact of ICT to the economy, e.g., Contribution of value added in the ICT sector to total business sector value added Contribution of employment in the ICT sector to total business sector employment Contribution of production value in the ICT sector to total business sector production value Contribution of revenue in the ICT sector to total business sector revenue Growth of revenue in the ICT sector, Etc. Future Plan
