Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra Tuesday informed the Education Ministry of the offer.
“The loan will be huge enough to procure tablets for all school students,” the ministry’s permanent-secretary Panita Kamphu na Ayutthaya said.
This year, the Thai government ordered 900,000 tablets from a Chinese supplier via the government-to-government arrangement.
Currently, the projected number of tablets is high enough to supply Pathom 1 students only.
