Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt has offered a public apology over his recent statement about Bangkok’s new city plan which, he said, may have caused dissatisfaction or discomfort for some people.

 

In his Facebook post today, the governor said that the new plan, which has not yet come into force pending adjustments, is a continuation of the development process in plans which were implemented in 1999 and 2013, as Bangkok’s landscape changes year after year due to land utilization and the emergence of new communities.

 

He said that the city plan is revised every five years, to cope with physical changes in the city, as he offered an assurance that the latest is not tailored to benefit rich landlords, but is for the benefit of the public.
