THE Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT) Saturday (Nov 12) denied five private companies had agreed to sponsor the broadcast of Fifa World Cup 2022 being held in Qatar from Nov. 20 to Dec. 18 at 200 million baht each for a total of 1 billion baht that remains to be raised out of 1.6 billion baht needed to buy the licence, Matichon newspaper said.

 

The National Broadcasting and Telecommunication Commission (NBTC) has approved a 600 million baht budget for SAT to acquire the broadcasting licence with SAT Governor Dr. Kongsak Yodmanee now accelerating private sector participation.

 

He confirmed that the private sector had yet to come up with the huge amount of money that remained to be raised.

After the Man U and Liverpool match became a fiasco, they donn't seem to have learned any lessons.

Go canada

It will happen sponsorship will come ????

It's for  the Happiness of the Thai people ????

Incompetent typical Thai way of working. Sitting idle til the last minute. Rush it up and end up producing far less than expected. Bury the head in sand hoping it goes away. Unfortunately it does go away with little to no accountability. I see it too often at work and in business environments. 

Was it not just last week that a lardy waddling general proclaimed you can watch it or did he just have watch on the brain ????

I don't think it was incompetence as much as it was on the way Thai businesses operate. Instead of just promoting and sponsoring this they would rather at the last minute come out and say we are going to save the WC we will be the knight in shining armour BS

In what sense did this match become a "Fiasco" ????

It was a very well organised event & was enjoyed by thousands, including myself.
