According to the Bangkok Post, Thai mobile operator True Corporation has asked the regulator, the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC), to reduce the auction reserve price for third-generation (3G) mobile frequencies in order to support domestically-owned players. The wholly Thai owned operator, says that lowering the reserve price of spectrum will allow it to better compete with foreign-based mobile operators, the paper quotes True’s CFO Noppadol Dejudom as saying. The official's comments are no doubt a hint towards the current market leader Advanced Info Service, which is controlled by Singapore's Temasek Holdings and SingTel, and the second-placed operator Total Access Communication (DTAC), majority owned by Telenor of Norway.
