China-Thailand digital cooperation has become the focus of bilateral exchanges since the two established ministerial dialogue on digital economy cooperation in 2019. 

On December 2021, China and Thailand launched ASEAN's first 5G smart hospital at Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok, backed by Huawei's 5G techonology. On September 2022, Advanced Info Service (AIS), Thailand's biggest mobile operator by subscriber base, and China's ZTE jointly launched a 5G innovation center in an effort to facilitate local infrastructure upgrading and elevate the nation's digital economy.

During an event themed Powering Digital Thailand 2022, which was held in November 2021, Thai Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon reiterated that digital infrastructure, such as 5G, is crucial to Thailand's economic and social development, especially for the country's post-pandemic economic revival.
