Ageing in place readiness in Thailand: urban and rural comparison
Thai older in rural areas can ageing in place better than their counterparts in urban areas. Therefore, the government should promote social participation policies for the older in urban areas, and technology for the older in rural areas. Overall, Thailand needs to ensure that there is a robust support system for ageing in place so that the older enjoy an optimal quality of life.
