Abstract
The objectives of this work were to study the current situation of social protection in Thailand and to analyze the gaps in achieving the sustainable development in Goal 1, Target 1.3. The results of the study found that the social protection in Thailand consisted of social security, health insurance, labour protection, social welfare and other social services. In 2015, 20.50% of the total populations obtained the social protection by Social Security Act B.E. 2533 (1990) under Article 33, 39 and 40. About 7,671 million baht was allocated annually for social protection and social welfare services by the basic rights of Thai people, especially the poor and the vulnerable. The gaps in achieving the goal of sustainable development in Goal 1, Target 1.3 were; inconsistent state policy and unsystematic measures and projects. The social protection was mostly allocated in the form of money, allowance, grant, fund and free welfare. The appropriate measures other than money from taxation should be implemented and the social protection system should be unique, relevant and sustainable in finance
