Thailand’s state-owned enterprises are expected to raise around THB70 billion through infrastructure funds to support investment in major infrastructure projects. The initiative is being considered as part of efforts to mobilise private-sector funding for public infrastructure development and public-private partnership projects.
The proposed infrastructure funding is expected to include projects associated with the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand and the Expressway Authority of Thailand. The government is also looking to promote green infrastructure projects and expand investment opportunities in the country’s infrastructure sector.
