news Train fares decision can wait: TCC The Bangkok Post Consumers urge BMA to share details © The Bangkok Post The Thailand Consumers’ Council (TCC) has launched a campaign to halt the cabinet’s plan to rethink the extension of concessions and cheap fares on the BTS skytrain Green Line. Saree Aongsomwang, secretary-general of the newly established consumer protection body, said reviewing the 30-year extension was not an urgent issue and the cabinet should first ask the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) to provide details about its proposal. The move follows reports the cabinet would review the lengthy concessionary status of the new electric train service and its capped fare hikes. The suggestion the cabinet was having second thoughts about the BTS Green Line concession and fares emerged last November after the government turned down the BMA’s request to renew the BTS Group’s favoured status.
