Progress on 'CARE Formula' Awaits Legal Finalization
Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat is pushing for the advancement of the 'CARE Formula' welfare system, which is currently pending review by the Council of State.
According to a report by Matichon Online on October 22, 2026, Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat has confirmed that the government is actively following up on the progress of the 'CARE Formula' welfare system. The initiative is currently awaiting further action after being submitted to the Council of State for legal review.
Sastram Thammaboon, a key figure involved in the project, stated that the technical calculation system required to implement the formula is already prepared. The project’s advancement is now contingent upon completing the necessary legal procedures.
For residents and expatriates in Thailand, this development is significant as the 'CARE Formula' is intended to serve as a structured framework for welfare distribution. While the technical infrastructure is ready, the timeline for when this system will be officially enacted remains unconfirmed. The government has not yet provided a specific date for when the Council of State will conclude its review or when the policy will be ready for public rollout. Interested parties should monitor official government announcements for updates on the legal status of this welfare initiative, as it may impact future social support structures in the country.
