Airports of Thailand may run own commercial area after terminating King Power contracts

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Airports of Thailand is likely to run the commercial area at Suvarnabhumi airport itself after terminating its contracts with King Power International Group.

Many members of the military-installed new AOT board are in favour of this option. The final decision will be made today (April 10, 2007).

The AOT late last month took no other action after nullifying its contracts with King Power, which was given the right to run duty-free shops and other commercial space at the new Bangkok airport.

The AOT is now being accused of receiving kickbacks in return for dragging its feet in the case, said the source.




Cabinet cancels Suvarnabhumi metropolis project

Military-installed cabinet accepted the Interior Ministry’s request to withdraw the draft bill on the proposed establishment of a special administrative zone around Suvarnabhumi airport from scrutiny by the Council of State.

The move comes because it was the Thaksin government-initiated project and was blasted in a series of recent polls conducted by the military installed’s ministry.

Deputy military’s government spokeswoman Netpreeya Chumchaiyo said the request was accepted after the ministry forwarded the findings and recommendations of a series of surveys on the draft bill.
