The Transport Ministry and aviation bodies aim to establish Thailand as an aviation hub, emphasising maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) to meet international demand in the region.
"We must establish our own full-scale MRO, otherwise neighbouring countries such as Singapore will reap all the aviation benefits," said Transport Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn at the "Skyconomy" seminar co-hosted by Bualuang Securities this week.
He said Thailand is located near the two most populous nations, India and China, and serves as a gateway to Indochina, underlining its strong potential to become an aviation hub.
