 Subject:

A Thai hand gesture, as well as iconic signs reflecting some of the apps found in Thailand's digital economy, including a camera for photos, a policeman for assistance and protection, a silhouette of traditional Thai buildings and pagodas for tourist info, a justice scale for law assistance, a shopping cart for shopping online, a tuktuk for transportation, a durian with a barcode for fruit prices, a diploma with a mortarboard (square academic cap) for education, and a red heart with a white cross for health issues. In the background is a map of the world and in the top right corner is the logo of the National Communications Day, i.e. a stylized messenger pigeon. The index finger of the hand points to Thailand, which is highlighted on the world map in yellow, and from which emerge concentric circles, made up of the digital code of ones and zeros, on which the icons are placed and thus referring to the distribution of what these apps represent around the globe.
