What have we learnt from PVS evaluation?

Strengths and major gaps identified

Technical authority and capabilityInteraction with stakeholdersAccess to markets
How can we use the PVS results for further policy making process and actions?
Thailand has a very strong VS, led by the high standards required of its export industries.
HPAI outbreaks and ensuing political support have also assisted in the rapid high quality development of the VS.
GAP and GMP systems are very appropriate ways to improve animal health/food safety measures nationally.
Movement controls seem to generally function well.
DLD is active in international animal health policy and forums, and in trade negotiations.
Thailand veterinary services are pioneers in compartmentalization and zoning.
A lack of veterinarians at field level
A lack of regulatory control over drug sales and their use (outside of GAP farms)
Livestock assistants and volunteers are too poorly trained and are basically outposts for reporting what they "notice“.
Domestic food safety in smaller slaughtering establishments, milk collecting centres needs attention in order to guarantee the same high quality as the exports.
It is time to make it moved >>
