Aram Loveera, chairman of the Administration of Chaiyaphum Province of Thailand, attended the forum and said that Chaiyaphum has abundant water resources with many mountains and rivers. He hopes that Chaiyaphum can learn from Guizhou in terms of intelligent water resource management.

Using big data technology to monitor factors such as water volume, rainfall, and flow rate, Chaiyaphum can manage floods and ensure more effective management during the flood season. This will help promote high-quality urban development and use information data to benefit the people.
