During a seminar, he explained, “Regarding Khon La Khrueng Plus, many say it’s a short-term phase. The new Plus will allow participating stores to press a single button to analyze sales data—identify the best sales times and customer groups. Proper cost management alone will be beneficial. I have also discussed with the Thai Bankers’ Association about analyzing income and expenses, enabling merchants to obtain loans without resorting to informal lenders. This will help upskill vendors. For buyers, AI will analyze purchasing patterns to foster better spending awareness,” as previously reported.
