Prime Minister emphasizes that canceling the high-speed rail project connecting three airports is difficult
Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, gave an interview regarding the progress of the high-speed rail project connecting three airports, a major infrastructure project for Thailand. A key point of interest is the status of the contract signed with the private sector.
Mr. Anutin affirmed that it is not easy for the private sector to request a cancellation of the contract, as this project is a legally binding agreement that has long-term implications for the country's economic development plan. Any actions related to the contract must follow legal procedures and the agreements established from the very first day the project began.
Furthermore, the government continues to prioritize moving the project forward to ensure maximum benefit for the public and the national economy. Relevant agencies are closely monitoring the situation to prevent any damage to state interests and to ensure the project can achieve its set goals.
At this time, the government has not made any decisions to change conditions that would lead to a contract cancellation, and continues to emphasize that all parties must adhere to the original agreement. This is to ensure that the high-speed rail project connecting three airports, which is the heart of the development of the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), can open for service according to the planned schedule in the future.
