Main idea:
Inequality is a global issue affecting income, wealth, and opportunities.
Important points:
- Income inequality: Measured by Gini coefficient, it has widened globally but improved in Thailand over 30 years.
- Wealth inequality: More severe than income inequality, with the top 10% owning most wealth globally and in Thailand.
- Opportunity inequality: Access to education and healthcare is limited for poorer families, perpetuating poverty cycles.
