Construction of a 5-billion-baht Silicon Tech Park, expected to be a model for Thai digital cities, is set to start next year in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) through a public-private partnership.
The project dubbed the "Silicon Valley of the East" and co-developed by Planet Communications Asia Plc, Cisco, and the EEC Office is located in an area spanning 500-700 rai in Rayong's Ban Chang district.
"We are asking the government to reduce electricity prices by 20% because foreign investors said the current rate is high and their businesses require a high volume of electricity," said Prapat Rathlertkarn, chief executive of Planet Communications Asia.
