EXIM to fund Bangkok aeroplane deal
Pisit Serewiwattana, president of the Export-Import Bank of Thailand (EXIM), and Puttipong Prasarttong-Osoth, president of Bangkok Airways, have signed a financial agreement to provide credit of Bt3 billion to finance the airline's acquisition of four ATR72-600s to expand domestic and international routes.
The expansion is in line with EXIM’s mission and government policy. Tourism is Thailand’s major source of revenue, in 2017 totalling Bt2.76 trillion, representing around 20 per cent of GDP.
