The government vows to move ahead with plans to promote 10 existing special economic zones (SEZs) in 10 provinces in an effort to decentralise development and growth, as well as lure investment to the provinces.
According to deputy government spokeswoman Rachada Dhnadirek, the government also pledges to tighten cooperation with neighbouring nations to increase trade and investment in the border areas.
"The government aims to build the SEZs to become strategic locations that help develop border regions and improve the quality of life for rural people," she said.
