CP reaffirms termination of 3-airport rail deal
The CP Group has reaffirmed its intention to terminate the contract for the high-speed rail linking Don Mueang, Suvarnabhumi, and U-Tapao airports, and may stop operating the Airport Rail Link. The government is urgently negotiating to keep the rail link running and reduce the project's scope, with a key deadline of September 30 to resolve outstanding issues.
Context — no action needed.
