70th Anniversary of Japan’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) in Thailand: Strengthening Cyber Resilience
With rapid economic growth in the 1960s, Japan became one of the world’s leading industrialized nations representing Asia. Accordingly, its role to support the progress of developing countries intensified. In 1974, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) established its office in Thailand to enhance Thailand’s economic and social development while also initiating regional development that corresponded with the countries’ needs at the time.
Japan’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) in Thailand covers a wide-range of development sectors including infrastructure, health care, education, industry, food security, social security, environment, and capacity-building of many government agencies.
The photobook celebrates the 70 years of Japan-Thailand cooperation with the locations and people involved and explores a way forward for future Japan-Thailand partnership.
Strengthening Cyber Resilience
Established in 2018, the ASEAN-Japan Cybersecurity Capacity Building Centre (AJCCBC) is supported by Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF 2.0) and JICA to develop a cybersecurity workforce to enhance the capacity of cybersecurity experts and specialists in the ASEAN Member States by providing trainings and other activities to participants from the ASEAN Member States.
