In a letter sent to City Hall, the Rail Department invited the BMA and other agencies concerned to a meeting, tentatively scheduled for this week, to discuss the fare issue. Mr. Kittiphan Parnchan, deputy director-general of the Rail Department, said today that he wants the meeting to be held as quickly as possible, because the fares impact a lot of commuters at a time when many of them are already being hit hard by the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
