The 31 candidates vying for the Bangkok governor’s post now have less than 50 days to impress the voters. But after examining their policies and campaigns, political observers believe they can separate the top contenders from the flops.

According to him, Bangkok just needs to link up services and infrastructure to boost efficiency and people’s life quality.
