The cabinet met on September 29, 2020 at the Government House. Some of the resolutions are as follows:
The cabinet approved the following proposals made by Ministry of Transport:
1. Approved for State Railway of Thailand (SRT) to set up a subsidiary (initially named ?Rodfai Asset Development, Co., Ltd.) to manage its assets, with the registered capital of 200 million Baht.
2. Approved for SRT to seek loan in the amount of 200 million Baht to invest as the registered capital of the subsidiary, with Ministry of Finance as the surety.
The cabinet approved extension of the Emergency Decree nationwide for another month during October 1-31, 2020, as proposed by the National Security Council.
At present, COVID-19 situation remains serious in several continents across the world, while Thai citizens living abroad have continually repatriated. Coupling with the Government?s decision to ease lockdown of high-risk activities and businesses to mitigate people?s plights and economic impact, it is still necessary for concerned officials to strictly implement both response and preventive measures in a unified manner to efficiently control the situation. Besides, the Emergency Decree would help the country and people in preparing for the transition to the New Normal.
