Article Abstract:

Thailand's telecommunications industry has shifted its focus on multilateral financing toward project financing to fund its expansion programs. The Thai industry now depends on a wide range of alternative financing sources to generate capital. The shift away from multilateral financing can be attributed to increased investor confidence encouraged by the Thai government's efforts to deregulate capital flow.
