True to provide free Wi-Fi at police head office, stations

Supachai was speaking to reporters after signing a memorandum of understanding on the cooperation with Police Commissioner General Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda at the Royal Thai Police headquarters.
Supachai said True was willing to support police as part of the cooperation between the state and private sector under the Pracharaj scheme.
True would install broadband networks to the police head office and stations and used Wi-Fi hotspots to provide fast Internet connection to police and the installation would be completed within next year. In remote areas where cables cannot be installed, True would link the stations with 4G connection, Supachai added.
The cooperation would initially have five-year period and could be continued, Supachai added.
He said the public members, who come to use police services at the police stations, would also be able to use free Wi-Fi services.
Chakthip said True would cooperate with the Royal Thai Police to provide welfare to police personal in three projects.
Apart from the free Wi-Fi services, True will allow police personnel to buy goods in CP Freshmart at the same prices with CP staffs and will also provide a number of mobile phones to police officers to make free calls, Chakthip said.
He said the cooperation would allow the Royal Thai Police to save about Bt30 million a year.
