Thailand lays out bold EV plan, wants all electric cars by 2035

BANGKOK (Bloomberg): Thailand aims to only sell zero-emission vehicles in the country from 2035 as it works to transform itself from a Southeast Asian hub for the production of conventional autos to one making electric cars.

"We can see the world is heading in that direction so we have to move quickly, ” Kawin Thangsupanich, an adviser to Energy Ministry’s national policy committee, said in an interview.

"We want to capture that growth post-pandemic, and we have the ambition to be the production center because we already have the existing supply chains.”
