The Eastern Economic Corridor (EECO), a special economic zone of three provinces in eastern Thailand, has partnered with state-owned National Telecommunications (NT) to launch the country’s first 5G pilot.

Under the plan, the district of Ban Chang, Rayong, will become Thailand’s first progressive smart city, according to a statement.

The two companies said infrastructure around the Ban Chang Subdistrict Municipality is being improved to prepare the area for various communications systems, including frequency technologies that support the industrial development of 5G.

Not really as you clearly haven't got a clue what the Smart City concept entitles. Nuff said.

Agreed; have tried TOT & 3BB both as unreliable as the other.  They did some upgrading near me; great swathes of cabling cut down & left strewn about the road to be caught up in motor bike wheels.

There are so many ads and billboards advertising 5G, and all the phone shops sell 5G handsets...................and yet it's only just being piloted in Thailand.

Are we talking about Internet or 5G phones?
