Cabinet tabs Suvarnabhumi as 77th province

PRADIT RUANGDIT
The cabinet yesterday approved in principle a draft bill establishing the Suvarnabhumi metropolis as the country's 77th province despite a concern by Bangkok's governor of adverse effects on the capital. The metropolis is to be run by a governor, appointed by a prime minister-chaired panel, in the first four to eight years. It would then become a special administrative zone, run by an elected mayor and council. It would function as a special administrative organisation with status equal to a province.


Government spokesman Surapong Suebwonglee said turning the new Suvarnabhumi airport into an aviation and transport centre would be difficult without a new province to oversee development, now done by small local bodies with limited budgets and personnel.


However, Bangkok Governor Apirak Kosayodhin reaffirmed the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration's objection to two of its districts _ Lat Krabang and Prawet _ being annexed by the new city.


He said there were fears of flood and environmental problems if the new province could not properly manage water. The two districts provided essential water drainage channels for Bangkok, he said.


He urged the government to instead focus on developing transport links to the new airport.


The draft law on the Suvarnabhumi metropolis has yet to be scrutinised by the Council of State and it requires endorsement from the new cabinet before being vetted by new parliament.


Under the draft bill, the Suvarnabhumi metropolis will cover 522 sq km of land, encompassing Lat Krabang and Prawet districts, as well as Bang Phli and Bang Sao Thong districts of Samut Prakan.

From reading that and from talking to my grandfather; its apparent that the level of beurocracy in Bangkok is TOO large; in order to run the new air port and surrounding booming industrial/commercial zones; it needs the proper attendment from competent and new leaders to assess the new zone. Bangkok has enough to handle (considering over 10 million people need to be properly addressed there too).

I think its a great strategic decision to declare the region as a special zone/province; as it will heighten the level of cooperation and management; evading the long red tape problem if it were to be part of MBK.

The new government is showing excellent promise of strategic planning. Great! This is good news for our Mighty and Proud Thailand.

Blah blah say all you want, but everyone knows more than half of the new province belongs to the current prime minister's wife khunying podjaman. Anyway they both are going to jail soon because of the fruad and falsified claim against the american largest shareholder of IBC cable TV. They are going to jail. 55555
