BANGKOK, 1 February 2013 (NNT) -Local agencies and the government will set up knowledge hub in every region of the country in order to provide space for children to read and acquire knowledge.

The Thailand Knowledge Park (TK Park), the Prime Minister’s Office, and local municipalities have signed a deal to create TK Hubs in each region of Thailand.

The TK Park, which is located in Bangkok, was the first park established to encourage children to read and learn. The Park is aimed at leading the country towards a learning society and creating an alternative environment of learning especially for children and young people.

In order to extend the learning society to other provinces, the government has agreed to set up more knowledge parks, generally known as TK Hubs, in Nakhon Ratchasima, Narathiwat, and Chiang Mai. The move is expected to help reduce the learning gap between Bangkok kids and those in other provinces as well as prepare the nation for the ASEAN Economic Community.
