Dusit Thani can truly be called "fit for a king." It was the vision of King Rama VI of Thailand in 1918 that inspired the Dusit concept of impeccable hospitality. "Dusit Thani" was the King's description of his vision."Dusit" is the mythological name for a level of heaven, and "Thani" means town. The King's "town in heaven" was the ideal choice of name for the Bangkok-based flagship hotel, which was officially opened in 1970. Fittingly, a statue of King Rama VI stands across the way from the hotel. In 1995, Dusit International acquired the Hotel Nikko Manila by purchasing shares in the holding company, Philippine Hoteliers Inc.

    May 5, 2020 Thai Enquirer Summary Economic News The government pledged to spend around 400 billion baht on small-scale infrastructure projects, with the goal to create jobs over the next 3-4 months to shore up the local economy, according to Deputy Prime Minister Somkid Jatusripitak. Mr Somkid said the funds will be poured into provincial small-scale infrastructure projects with the aim of creating jobs. The Cabinet is set to consider later this month the framework of a new stimulus package, proposals for which will be submitted by state agencies, Mr Somkid said. The Agriculture Minister expects financial aid to reach farmers affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 from the middle of this month onwards and farmers are urged to quickly register for the financial assistance. The Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives (BAAC) said it is ready to transfer a financial aid of 5000 baht per month over a 3-month period (from May to July) to accounts of 10 million farming households from May 15. The cash handout scheme for farmers will require a total funding of 150 billion baht. The BAAC expects to transfer the fund to 1 million farming households per day. The Social Security Office (SSO) came under fire for slow compensation payments to laid-off workers amid speculation that the office is running short of money. The SSO came out to say that it has a total of 2.03 trillion baht in fund management as it had 1.35 trillion baht in funds and received 675 billion baht in returns from its investments.
