Bidding for construction of new Parliament proceeded

Sino-Thai construction has submitted a lowest bid for a construction a new parliament for Thailand at a cost of 12.9 Billion Baht.  The lowest bid was still higher than the planned budget and price-negotiation will be conducted.  In the past few years, members of parliaments have voiced their desire to get a new location of the parliament, to be constructed over the left bank of Chaophraya River in north Bangkok.
 
Some scholars have earlier opposed to the idea citing more severe floods in the future and had suggested any new development located out of the central low plain, but the idea went unheard.
