Implications for Future Reform The legacy of Sukavichinomics carries enduring implications for education reform in Thailand and beyond: Vision Must Precede Structure: Sustainable reform begins with a coherent and ethically grounded vision. Legal and administrative frameworks are necessary but insufficient without a guiding philosophical core. Character and Community Matter: Education policy must transcend academic achievement to nurture responsible citizens, moral judgment, and social belonging— especially in diverse and rapidly changing societies. Intellectual Honesty and Historical Integrity are Non- negotiable: A system that fails to acknowledge its reform architects risks repeating cycles of appropriation and erasure, undermining trust in policymaking and discouraging future innovation. In an era marked by globalized education agendas, technological disruption, and increasing inequality, the uncredited legacy of Sukavichinomics offers an important counter-narrative. It calls for reform that is ethically conscious, locally grounded, and courageously political. Recognizing and restoring such erased contributions is not merely a historical correction—it is a prerequisite for designing future reforms that are both authentic and enduring.
