[ IEEE GCN - Aug 2025 issue ] -- (NOV 30, 2024) The IEEE ComSoc Thailand Chapter marked its 30th anniversary with a significant celebration, coinciding with the launch of the new book Quantum — The Discourse. The book aims to promote an accurate understanding of quantum technology and combat misinformation stemming from the national quantum roadmap (2020–2029).
On October 17, 2024 (online), the chapter hosted the “Thai Communications Histories — Symposium 2024” to commemorate this milestone (1994–2024). The event featured a historical overview of Thai telecommunications, from landline cable and optical fiber systems to wireless platforms and applications, presented by speakers from leading local telecom companies and infrastructure authorities (NT, EGAT, PEA, and MOPH). Event proposals, milestones, historical photos, and recorded videos are available at https://shorturl.at/6UY9Y.
Subsequently, the Thai IEEE Quantum IT group introduced “Quantum — The Discourse” 2024 EP#1 — Science Deep State, a cartoon-style book that critically examines the origins of the controversial national quantum technology roadmap (2020-2029). The book addresses the roadmap’s questionable proposals, such as using quantum technology for private information security, borrower ratings, bad debt algorithms, earthquake warnings, and even “Animal Healthcare”, as reported at https://shorturl.at/aL6bW. This publication aims to correct quantum misconceptions within the Thai science and technology community, fostering sustainable solutions. The book was presented at the IEEE Thailand Section annual general meeting on November 30, 2024, and its eBook version is free at www.quantum-thai.org/q-books.
“Learning History for a Better Future” remains a core principle of IEEE Thailand, guiding our efforts to drive the local ICT community towards a brighter future. This 30th Anniversary 2024 event also serves as a prelude to the upcoming Sesquicentennial of Thai Telecommunications 2025, celebrating 150 years of Thai telecommunications evolution — from telegraphy to the AI and quantum ICT era.
