Abstract

The title of this paper is the same as that for the theme of this important Conference. Based on the material I have read and the comments I have heard it certainly would appear that Thailand and Thai people generally are not really prepared for Thailand’s entry into the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) which is now only 6 months away. However, some surveys and comments have indicated this is not the case and that Thailand is ready! This paper tries to explore how Thailand can best or better prepare itself for this imminent change and how it may act after the change occurs, in other words, how can it act to best benefit from the AEC after it comes into existence.
