NEC of Japan said it got the first known real contract to build and operate a WiMAX network in Thailand; it will install the system for the more than 20 hospitals of the Crown Prince Hospital Foundation, centred in Chiang Khong district of Chiang Rai; NEC was so excited it forgot to say how much it was getting for the job, which must give wireless broadband communications for 5km; if successful, the system will allow constant contact between hospitals and clinics, and vastly increase efficiency of patient treatment. Contracts are for kids, apparently, as your CAT Telecom decided to submit its dispute with favoured partner Huawei Technologies of China to the Office of the Attorney-General; the Huawei contract carried a fine of 90 million baht a day for unfinished work on the 7.2 billion baht CDMA network installation, but Jirayu Roongsrithong, a senior CAT executive president for vice, explained that the contract ''needs legal support,'' leaving taxpayers to wonder what the original contract was, if not legal; Huawei has suggested to its CAT friends that the fine be cut in half.
