Yingluck Shinawatra's Pheu Thai party has been widely supporting the construction of a high-speed airport link beween Suvarnabhumi and Pattaya should they win the upcoming election.

Election promises of course are often no more than rhetoric but her other comments on creating a Special Administrative Region for the southern border area (Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat) also point towards an agenda aiming at creating significant economic reforms.

The term 'mega projects' is starting to come into political arenas and Pheu Thai are intent on rewinding the clock back to the Thaksin years.
