The communication network for telecom and broadcasting services to support some 900,000 users who will attend the Royal Cremation Ceremony for His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej at Sanam Luang and the Grand Palace area has been tested for capacity. National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) chairman Sukit Khamasunthorn said the NBTC and Royal Thai Police updated communication quality preparations at Sanam Luang yesterday, with the quality of five mobile operators' networks achieving optimum standards. The NBTC has insisted all mobile operators must keep optimum network capacity standards around the areas of the ceremony. The team has also prepared six mobile transmission vans around the areas to detect telecom and broadcasting signal interference during the event. AIS customers will be able to access AIS Super WiFi at Sanam Luang and all roads surrounding the Grand Palace.
