Four major candidates in the upcoming Bangkok gubernatorial election have opposed the extension of the Green Line railway concession, while insisting that fares could be capped at lower than 65 baht.
The four candidates are Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn from the Move Forward Party, Suchatvee Suwansawat from the Democrat Party and two independent candidates -- Rosana Tositrakul and Chadchart Sittipunt.
They were recently invited to discuss the matter during an online talk organised by the Thailand Consumer Council (TCC) regarding the fares of Bangkok's electric rail system, in the hope that their suggestions could change the mind of the cabinet, TCC secretary-general Saree Aongsomwang said.
