Deputy Transport Minister Siripong Angkasakulkiat on Tuesday assured the House of Representatives that key transport and logistics projects would continue despite a budget cut of more than 23 billion baht.
Speaking on the second day of the House debate on the 2027 budget bill, Mr Siripong said that even though the ministry's budget was reduced by about 8.8%, investment in infrastructure essential to economic growth and public transport would proceed.
He said transport infrastructure was not merely about construction but about making travel safer and more convenient while generating economic growth and raising national income.
