“A prosperous economy is the foundation of a progressive society. Economic growth must be inclusive, sustainable, and beneficial to every section of society.”
Drawing from his experience as a Commerce Advisor to the Thailand Government and his international educational and professional exposure, Dr. Chetan Narake works to connect global economic concepts with local realities.
He continuously promotes ideas that ensure economic development reaches rural communities, strengthens local industries, and improves the quality of life for ordinary citizens.
According to him, economic development is not merely reflected in statistics and growth figures but in tangible improvements in people’s lives. Strengthening local entrepreneurship, generating employment opportunities, empowering rural communities, and ensuring economic stability for citizens should be the true objectives of development.
He believes that rural economies can be transformed by creating employment opportunities and encouraging entrepreneurship. Young people should become job creators rather than job seekers, thereby laying the foundation for long-term and inclusive growth.
Dr. Narake emphasizes that economic progress is not driven solely by large investments or industrial expansion. It is equally dependent on agriculture, dairy farming, youth empowerment, cooperative movements, small businesses, and the active participation of ordinary citizens.
His vision is to build a robust rural economy where every family becomes more self-reliant, prosperous, and financially secure. He advocates ensuring that the benefits of economic growth reach the last person in society, creating opportunities and improving living standards for future generations.
