There are reports that the Thai government has been instructed to inject funds amounting 3:42 Bath billion or about 113 Million U.S. Dollars to promote and support these within a period of 3 years in the future. The proposed value itself has been approved by the Thai government cabinet members earlier this week.
This expenditure alone is more focused on the development of labor skills. White elephant country has produced more than 1.6 million vehicles last year, and by 2014 production would be expected to exceed more than 3 million vehicles.
This is a major constraint is the availability of competent human resources are not sufficient, and is unable to meet the increasing demand every year.
