The Office of the Auditor General of Thailand is accelerating the cancellation of a contract related to a building collapse, with plans to return the land to the State Railway of Thailand by 2027.
According to a report by Matichon Online, the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) of Thailand has provided an update regarding the legal and administrative proceedings following a building collapse incident.
