Most of them wanted high compensation. They were demanding as much as 12,000 baht a square metre for their land.




Suvarnabhumi Aerotropolis plan would have pros and cons

Friday, November 3rd, 2006

Plans to create a so-called aerotropolis around Suvarnabhumi Airport, now put on hold by the interim government, would help the country’s economy but hurt the environment, developers say. Problems would arise with water drainage and general living conditions in the area surrounding the airport city, they said.

The aerotropolis plan had “pros and cons. Everything has a trade-off,” said Teerachon Manomaiphibul, deputy managing director of the listed developer Property Perfect Plc..

“If we’re ready in terms of finance, the plan will accelerate development in the area. And development will not limit only the area linking the airport and Bangkok or Pattaya, but it will expand in all directions. However, the development needs a huge investment and the vast area would block the water flow.” he said.
