Play by the rules: AnutinAn artist's impression of the high-speed train for the track to be built by the Charoen Pokphand consortium connecting Suvarnabhumi, Don Mueang and U-tapao airports. (Photo from Charoen Pokphand Group)The government on Wednesday maintained its pressure on the Charoen Pokphand Group (CP)-led consortium to sign the contract to build a 224-billion-baht high-speed railway linking three airports. Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul on Thursday insisted that an unidentified party must "play by the rules". Who actually is asking for relaxation of the bidding rules for his own benefit?" "Follow the rules announced right from the beginning by the government, stop lobbying and bring a pen to sign the contract," he added.
