Laworn Saengsanit
Laworn Saengsanit is the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Finance in Thailand, known for spearheading significant tax reform initiatives aimed at enhancing the country's fiscal stability. In recent discussions, he emphasized the need for a comprehensive overhaul of the tax system, which includes adjustments to the value-added tax (VAT), corporate income tax, and personal income tax. His approach seeks to broaden the tax base by integrating individuals who have previously not filed taxes, thereby increasing government revenue and attracting foreign investment.
