PM backs 1800MHz auction

PRIME MINISTER General Prayut Chan-o-cha said Friday that the upcoming auction of 1800MHz spectrum licences should go ahead as planned.

While those opposing the auction have the right take legal action against it, the auction itself should proceed, he said.
The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission will call the bidding for two 1800MHz licences on November 11, and for two 900MHz licences on December 15, amid opposition from CAT Telecom and TOT, which earlier held each of the spectra, respectively.
