Thai HR expert Dr. Sunisa argues the state's civil service structure is unsustainable: each civil servant costs ~40 million baht over their lifetime, consuming 40% of state budget versus 30% in private sector. While the government approved workforce reduction plans in August, she warns this is insufficient and calls for bold political action, data-driven reengineering, and international best practices (Singapore's rotation model, Canada's cross-agency workforce planning) to modernize civil service flexibility and productivity.
