webfact Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Communication lines to be buried in bid to make Bangkok a smart city By The Nation From next year, many Bangkok roads will be free of the ugly power and communication lines that hang overhead at dangerous angles. Digital Economy and Society Minister Buddhipongse Punnakanta handed over the plan to TOT acting president Morakot Thienmontree on Wednesday morning. The plan requires the reorganisation of communication lines in inner Bangkok, namely in Pathum Wan and Bang Rak districts, including Lang Suan Road, at the top of Soi Saladaeng and Soi Convent. The minister said this policy supports the goal of turning Bangkok into a smart metropolis and expects the project to be completed by August 2021.

Guderian Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Pattaya's doing the same, amazing how quickly all this smartness spreads, or might it simply be the prospect of a juicy cut for local officials and politicians off lots of expensive contracts?
