Parliament to relocate to a river-front plot in Kiek Kai

By The Nation

The Cabinet on Tuesday approved the new location of Parliament on Sam Sen Road, known as the Kiek Kai area fronting the Chao Phaya



The government would allocate Bt4 billion for the relocation.

The chosen plot is a treasury land presently occupied by the Army Transport Department which will be relocated to a new site on Tiwanont Road in Nonthaburi.

The nearby Yonthinburana School will be moved to a new site located two kilometers away. A flat for royal guards is to be rebuilt at a new site on Sri Saman Road near the Defence Ministry.

A community will be compensated and relocated to a new location.

The government plans to organise the corner-stone laying ceremony by December 5, presiding over by the King and coinciding with His Majesty's 80th birthday.
