A total of 806.5 million baht was raised from the country's first auction of satellite orbital slot packages on Sunday, which saw SET-listed satellite service operator Thaicom secure two out of five packages and state enterprise National Telecom (NT) obtain one.
The telecom regulator recently awarded SET-listed Thaicom a licence to use foreign satellite transponders to provide domestic services through US firm Globalstar's low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite service network.
Winning bids of at least 700 million baht are expected from the auction of satellite orbital slots this Sunday, says the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC).
