Thailand to enforce Personal Data Protection Act from June 1

BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network): Overruling objections from some sections of the private sector, the government has decided to enforce the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) from June 1.

Thienchai na Nakorn (pic), chairman of the Personal Data Protection Committee (PDPC), said the Act has already been delayed beyond the two-year time frame, hence there would be no more delay in implementing it.
