The Western world's printing technology arrived in In the wake of printing a new culture emerged in Thailand. This culture, to be specific, involved the Thailand during the reign of King Rama ill and it initiated exchange of arguments via printed matter. Unlike the changes and formed new culture. Overseas-educated one-way written communication of the past, this culture encouraged Thais to express their opinions and call Thais returned to Thailand with Western concepts and a for improvements in the society. A culture such as this became vital to democracy. Western writing style together with the Westerners' habit of expressing their opinions through writing. In addition, As technology has advanced it has become very printing boosted educational opportunities in Thailand easy to start reading. Computers and the Internet are now widely available and are designed to match the lifestyle and thanks to printing textbooks could be produced of the new generation. These devices offer convenience in huge volumes each time. As a result, people from various social classes won access to education as well in reading and they work well with other inventions that as knowledge. are replacing conventional books. Technology can be expected to develop further in the future resulting in even greater convenience to readers. With this advanced technology reading will become more interesting, more accessible and closer at hand. However, no matter how advanced technology becomes the real substance in reading lies in its \"content\", Reading is of utmost importance. The more advanced the technology becomes, the greater the need for people to read. Reading habits thus should be fostered in children at a young age. Families, schools and society should play a role in promoting a love of reading. Readers are able to seek knowledge by themselves and so all parties concerned should join hands in encouraging children to read.
