Thailand's State Railway of Thailand (SRT) and Charoen Pokphand (CP) are locked in a dispute over the 224.5-billion-baht high-speed rail project connecting three airports. CP formally requested contract termination on 6 July 2026, citing unresolved land-handover and construction issues, but the government refuses both termination and amendment. The SRT board has directed negotiations with CP to have them withdraw the request, while the Eastern Economic Corridor board's decision is indefinitely postponed. Meanwhile, the SRT continues operating the Airport Rail Link under the existing concession and has taken over the Bangkok-Don Mueang segment (valued at 22 billion baht) to avoid delays to the Thailand-China railway project. The long-delayed high-speed rail may remain in limbo.
