Thailand's government has formally established a Data Center Policy Board (via official gazette) with multi-ministerial oversight (Energy, Digital Economy, Interior, Finance) and up to 3 expert members. The board will regulate data center operations—setting business standards, assessing environmental impact, managing electricity and water resource allocation, and balancing digital infrastructure growth with energy security, fire safety, and carbon neutrality targets. This signals Thailand's strategic commitment to attracting data center investment while mitigating risks to power stability and water supply.
