Phone numbers : True helps make the switch

True Move announced yesterday that it is ready to help mobile-phone customers make the switch to 10-digit numbers.
True Move customers, as well as customers from other networks, are invited to visit True Move Shops, True Shops and authorised True Move dealers throughout the country to have their contact lists updated. True Corp's general manager for marketing management, Suphakit Vuntanadit, said True Move was the only operator offering free downloads of mobile phone update software for the Symbian, Palm, Pocket PC and Smart Phone platforms through its website or via WAP, starting on September 1.
Rubber industry: Ministry seeks Bt2.5-bn budget OK The Agriculture Ministry is asking for the Cabinet's endorsement of a Bt2.5-billion budget to set up a rubber product development centre. The fund's objective is to develop and improve machinery in the rubber industry, and increase the competitiveness of Thai rubber products in the world market. The existing technology has been used for over 20 years and yields low productivity and raises production costs. Thailand is thus less competitive than those countries which employ modern technology, like China and India.
