The military-installed government completed the takeover of the countryâs only independent television station, and said it would temporarily pull it off the air after it failed to pay billions of dollars in fees. The takeover was expected after the station said last week that it could not pay the fees. The government announced yesterday that it would terminate iTVâs license after the deadline had passed for paying nearly $3 billion in fines, broadcasting license fees and interest. The governmentâs move was the latest in a series of decisions that have raised concern among investors and the public about the direction of Thailandâs leaders. Others include the imposition of capital controls and new restrictions placed on foreign ownership of Thai companies. A minister in the prime ministerâs office, told reporters the station would stop broadcasting today but could resume transmission as early as Friday if government officials could resolve legal issues for new ownership.
