The Federation of Thai Industries (FTI) is calling on the government to set stricter investment conditions for the rapidly growing data centre sector, ensuring local communities and businesses benefit from the influx of foreign capital.
The relocation and expansion of power- and water-intensive data centres into Thailand must generate tangible value for domestic suppliers and contractors, said Nopadej Karnasuta, chairman of the FTI's Power Producer Industry Club and president of B.Grimm Power for Thailand, Malaysia and energy and industrial solutions.
