Committee approves 30 projects in Northeast region
Let the Games Begin:
Listen up, folks, here's the lowdown on a whopping 30 development projects that have been given the green light by a public-private committee. These bad boys are set to pop up all over theUpper Northeast region of Thailand, racking up a grand total of over 16.4 billion baht!
Here's a taste of what we're dealing with:
Nakhon Phanom: This region's no stranger to progress, and it's about to get a boost with projects like sprucing up the landscape along the Mekong River in Muang district and developing a groovy Geo Park Centre in Tha Uthen district.
Sakon Nakhon: This city's about to become a creative economy powerhouse, reinventing itself and bringing in new opportunities!
Other projects are coming from the provinces in the upper Northeast and the private sector, but we don't have the exact locations for all of 'em just yet[1][2].
Now, just how much is Thai Baht tossing around for these projects? A veritable mountain of it! 400 million baht is being requested from the central fund of the 2025 budget to back some of these projects[1][2]. Four projects proposed by provinces and five from the private sector each have an asking price of 200 million baht[1].
So when's all this construction going to wrap up? Nine of the projects are good to go right away and should be complete within about a year. These babies mainly focus on tourism and infrastructure development[1][2].
While the nitty-gritty details about each project's location and cost might be a bit scant, these initiatives aim to make the region more sustainable, innovative, and all-around lovely by blending age-old charm with modern economic strategies[1][2].
