Nation TV pushes 'Bike Thailand' agenda
LAUNCHED by Nation Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) and its allies, the Nation Bike Thailand project aims to ensure that bike lanes materialise across the country and a national network of bicycle enthusiasts blossoms.
“We are going to push the Bike Thailand agenda,” NBC president Adisak Limprungpatanakij said at the launch of the project yesterday.
NBC, which operates Nation TV, is a part of the Nation Multimedia Group. The Nation Bike Thailand project springs into operation through the collaboration of NBC, government agencies, local administrative bodies, cyclist groups and business organisations. Representatives from these partners, some of whom hail from faraway provinces like Nakhon Si Thammarat, Udon Thani and Chiang Mai, joined the launch yesterday.
“Bicycling is good for health and the environment,” Adisak said, adding that support should be given to ensure that people are able to use bicycles conveniently and safely.
