BANGKOK – As the political turmoil in Thailand shows little sign of sorting itself out, the government is planning to use Don Muang Airport as a temporary workplace.
It said the move has become necessary because it will take several months to repair Government House after the sit-in protest by the People’s Alliance for Democracy, a source told The Nation.
The PAD has shown no signs of leaving Government House after it invaded the property last month and camped there to rally against the government, causing damage to the building, the gardens and the grounds.
Don Muang Airport will be used as the office for the prime minister and his deputies, as well as permanent officials.
The airport’s reception areas will also become reception areas for the government’s guests.
