Abstract

Factors Affecting the Installation of New Fixed Telephone Lines in Provincial Areas in Thailand In Thailand different provincial areas were given different priorities in the installation of fixed telephone lines. Some provinces, for example Chiang Mai, Rayong and Ranong, were ranked as a top priority, whereas in others, for example Chaiyaphum, Maha Sarakham and Phatthalung, were given a low priority. This paper aims to investigate the factors that influenced these choices. It was found that consumer demand for fixed-lines, indicated by the length of waiting lists, and criteria from the economic and social development plan, indicated by the location of industrial or tourism development provinces, were important determinants of the order of line installation.
