Annual Report 2015 1 Message from the President In 2016, the Government announced its plan to invest in mega projects to develop the transportation infrastructure of Thailand. The plan consists of many large projects which are: dual-track railway of the State Railways of Thailand; the Orange, Pink and Yellow Lines of the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand; Bang Pa-In – Nakhon Ratchasima and Bangyai – Kanchanaburi Motorways; the projects of the Port Authority of Thailand; Standard – Gauge Railway Project; and the development of the Suvarnabhumi Airport Phase 2. This year, if the projects under the economic stimulus program and the domestic investment of the government are initiated in compliance with the plan, the Company could still undertake further projects. The additional projects that the Company also aims at supporting and developing are as follows:: 1) The Dawei SEZ Project – on 5 August 2015, a contract for the Dawei Concession Phase 1 was signed with the Dawei Special Economic Zone in Myanmar, which included seven agreements for the industrial and public utility development covering over 27 square kilometres. A further agreement which may be signed in 2016 is the LNG Terminal Project, which could be rapidly constructed within this year. 2) Udon Thani Potash Mining Project – in the past year, the Company followed the rules for obtaining the patent permit, and has already held meetings for expressing opinions within village level and the Subdistrict Administration Organization Council. However, there are still meetings to be held at the Provincial level, which is the penultimate step in the process of obtaining the permit. Finally, the Provincial government shall offer the project to the Department of Primary Industries and Mines for consideration. The patent permit could be officially approved this year. 3) Elevated Expressway Construction in Bangladesh Project – is for a 25-year concession period (construction period included). The Bangladesh Government has recently changed the expressway routes and amended some information in concession. Currently, the ownership and the first four kilometres drawings of expressways have been completed. Some parts of the expressways are already being constructed while the Bangladesh Government requires good progress to be made on the project. The Company therefore has provided some domestic funds that it can be utilized for the project. In addition, the Project Finance has been considered for the funds from China. 4) Port and Railway Construction Services in the Republic of Mozambique Project – worth THB 120 million. The bank feasibility study has already been completed, verified and analyzed the suitability by the Independent Engineer in October, 2015. The ESIA and the Resettlement Action Plan are now more than 65 per cent complete. The project is in process of choosing the EPC contractor and dealing with other mining companies which are potentially the Company’s clients for future contracts. In addition, the Financial Close for the concession shall be made afterwards. 5) The Bauxite Mining and Production of Alumina and Aluminum Project in Laos PDR – is now in the process of preparing construction drawings and is carrying out studies on environmental and social effects. The project is expected to begin construction within this year. Construction of all the aforementioned projects will begin within this year and have construction periods of approximately 3-5 years. The development of these projects shall continuously generate additional profits to the Company. For the greatest advantage of the shareholders and for those who have consistently supported the Company, the Company therefore aims at developing every possible project, which shall create jobs and long-term revenue to the Company. As a result of the development of these projects, the Company can maintain the position of being the leading contractor in Thailand.
