A majority of National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) board members have shrugged off a request to seek the Council of State's deliberation as to whether the regulator has the power to consider approving the merger of True Corporation and Total Access Communication (Dtac).
The request was made by board member Prawit Leesathapornwongsa during a board meeting on Thursday, according to an NBTC source who requested anonymity. It is the first time such a request has been raised in an NBTC board meeting.
