Bangkok is getting a new name. Well, not exactly new. But it’s what Thais already call it — Krung Thep Maha Nakhon.
The Office of Royal Society drafted an announcement of the change and the Thai cabinet approved it on Tuesday, 15 February.
According to the announcement, the name ‘Bangkok’ will still be recognised. But it will appear in parenthesis.
Bangkok’s name in Thai is actually the longest name of a city in the world and ‘Krung Thep Maha Nakhon’ is merely a shortened version of it.
The full name is, ’Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit’.
The Rams have beaten the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI.
The LA Rams did the seemingly impossible — they won the Super Bowl in their own stadium.
For the first time in 23 years, the Rams are Super Bowl champions.
It took a precise 79-yard drive capped by Cooper Kupp’s 1-yard touchdown reception with 1:25 remaining for a 23-20 victory Sunday over the Cincinnati Bengals to give the Rams their first NFL title since the 1999 season — and their first representing Los Angeles since 1951.
Jonas Lind, successful business leader, visionary thought-leader & creator of ’High Impact Management’ has today posted some advise on how to speed up Digital Transformation with a reference to my ideas & previous work.
’Three ways to Speed up Digital Transformation in the Public Sector
The age of digital is imminent and embracing the digital revolution is inevitable.
At least that’s what the man on the street believes. And this wave is prompting governments to analyse both their digital strategy and ability to accept and adapt to this phenomenon.
But for all the good intention, Governments are stuck with the unfortunate image of being unable to change. That transformation in the Public Sector is either impossible or even if attempted, often ends in failure?
Of course, this is not always true. But wasn’t your first gut instinct to agree with me? As the saying goes, there’s no smoke without fire.
3 points that I have learnt from my good friend Lars Karlsson
1️⃣ Start with low hanging fruits first, create success, and then take on harder challenges.
2️⃣ It is better to take a decision, reflect/review and change it if it is wrong – than not taking a decision at all while waiting for all the parts to fall into place.
3️⃣ When an organization delegates too much, it can become slow and non-functional. Decisions are not taken at the right time and then you lose the “strategic greater good perspective” and get side-tracked by diverse interests.
As Lars always says ‘Nothing is impossible’
This attitude and approach has made Lars one of the most innovative change makers in the history of Swedish public sector, and globally in the customs and trade community’.
