NBTC Initiates Selection Process for 13 Bureau Director Positions
Acting Secretary-General Trairat Viriyasiriakul has launched the recruitment process for 13 bureau director roles within the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC).
According to a report by Matichon Online on October 15, 2026, Trairat Viriyasiriakul, the Acting Secretary-General of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC), has officially moved forward with the selection process for 13 bureau director positions. This administrative move is part of the organization's ongoing efforts to fill key leadership roles within its various departments.
Trairat confirmed that the specific criteria and guidelines for this recruitment drive have been finalized and are currently being submitted to the NBTC Chairman for formal approval. Once the Chairman provides the necessary authorization, the commission will proceed with the public announcement and the formal selection phase.
For residents and expatriates in Thailand, this development is primarily an internal administrative matter concerning the regulatory body that oversees the country's telecommunications and broadcasting sectors. While it does not immediately impact daily services, the appointment of new leadership in these 13 bureaus could eventually influence regulatory policies, licensing, and the overall management of digital and telecommunications infrastructure in the country.
At this stage, the specific qualifications required for these roles and the exact timeline for the final appointments remain to be confirmed. Stakeholders are awaiting the Chairman's official endorsement of the selection criteria before the recruitment process can officially commence.
