Happy New Year, Pon.
‘thank you for sharing your thoughtsand knowledge with us, in 2021 (why do my fiingers want to keep keying ‘2020’?) Have you commented recently on the growth area of 5G towers? I rekon AIS might spin off their towers into an I.F.,in order to finance expansion in this area.
Pon
Yes its an obvious move for AIS to spin off the towers.
CSS used to be a idea to play for 5G towers construction but there’s no clear obvious winner other than the telco’s themselves.
