Settapong said the act will give Thailand a chance to bring its aerospace business up to international standards as well as boost the country’s economy.
Proper legislation for the business will see the establishment of a responsible organisation, resulting in a clear direction for the “new economy”, which will be driven by innovation, technology and creativity, he said.
“I fully back General Prawit who is pushing this draft because it shows he has good vision for the future,” Settapong said, adding that aerospace businesses will not just bring in revenue and create jobs but will also benefit the country as a whole.
