The 200 billion baht the government plans to use to buy back the concessions of all electric train lines in Greater Bangkok is expected to come from two sources: the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand and fundraising through an infrastructure fund.
Tibordee Wattanakul, director-general of the State Enterprise Policy Office, said the government plans to raise funds via an infrastructure fund on a gradual basis, with 80 billion baht raised per issue until the targeted amount is reached.
