FTI survey reveals Thai entrepreneurs see data centre expansion as critical for industry development (48.1% support), but warn of serious infrastructure challenges: 68.8% cite water scarcity as top concern, 61.3% worry about electricity demand, and 61.3% fear regulatory gaps. Nearly half believe Thailand could become a regional data centre hub, but only if the country addresses water, energy, and legal frameworks. Key risk: unmanaged resource competition between industries and communities could undermine energy security and limit the sector's growth potential.
