Don Muang Airport to become new govt hub

BANGKOK: -- The government is planning to turn the Don Muang International Airport to be a new hub for government agencies after the opening of the Second Bangkok International Airport, or the Suvarnabhumi Airport, next year, according to the Government Spokesman, Jakrapob Penkair.

Mr. Jakrapob told journalists here that the plan was discussed by the cabinet at its mobile meeting in Thailand's northwestern province of Tak yesterday.

"After the opening of the Suvarnabhumi Airport, the cabinet wants to turn the Don Muang Airport to become a new centre for government agencies, particularly those of the parliament and the judicial system", he said.

"This is aimed at making the most suitable use of the then vacant space of the Don Muang Airport", he added.

The cabinet also discussed a related plan to develop the Southern Bangkok Criminal Court building near Sanam Luang ceremonial ground to be a new museum, disclosed the government spokesman.

Deputies Prime Minister Pinij Jarusombat and Somsak Thepsuthin have been assigned to oversee the plans, according to Mr. Jakrapob.
