The office of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) is working closely with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (DES) to prepare for the Thaicom 4 satellite’s 2024 lifespan expiry at 119.5° East orbit. The Thaicom 4 and Thaicom 6 satellites operate in the 119.5° East and 78.5° East orbital slots, respectively. In September 2021, the ministry took over the ownership and related assets of the two satellites and appointed the National Telecom to manage and operate them. Thaicom will manage the transition post-Thaicom 4’s expiration, serving existing customers and migrating them to new satellites in the 119.5° E orbital slot.
