It is not yet clear whether

Will Thai sports fans be able to watch the live broadcast of the 32nd SEA Games hosted by Cambodia between May 5-17??!!

Because Cambodia demands royalties from Thailand in the amount of up to 8 hundred thousand US dollars, or approximately 27.6 million baht, with the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT) in the process of negotiating to reduce the price.

Another story... If you agree to buy the copyright to broadcast it.

had to face the problem of the NBTC's "Must Have Rules" that required the public to watch for free on all platforms without conditions

Even before that, Dr. Kongsak Yodmanee, Governor of SAT, called on the Broadcasting Commission to

television business

and the National Telecommunications Commission to review "cancel" the Musthave Rule!!

Because it is the source of the problem of attracting the private sector to invest in the purchase of the rights to broadcast live broadcasts of 7 sports events, namely the SEA Games, ASEAN Para Games, Asian Games, Asian Para Games, Olympic Games, Paralympic Games and the World Cup.

Recently, the NBTC has just set up a working group.

to study information around

The case of the Musthave Rule that conflicts with the world's sports business

However, the NBTC confirmed that

not going to pressure

SAT that he had to buy the rights to the SEA Games to broadcast live for Thai people to watch for free.

Not buying is not against the rules at all.

But if you buy it, you must follow the must have rule only.

That is, Thai people must be able to watch on various channels free of charge.

As for canceling the musthave rule, it's not that we can do it today-tomorrow.

Because when the working group has finished studying the information, it must be brought to the Television Subcommittee meeting for consideration.

It takes 45 days to hear public opinion.

After that, there will be another 3 sets of sub-committee meetings to prepare drafts for submission to the main board for approval.

therefore it will be declared fully usable

long - difficult - complicated

According to the Thai version!!
