Ms. Chantraporn Chan, Managing Director of Frasers Property Commercial Asset Management (Thailand) Company Limited, said, "The commercial real estate landscape remains highly competitive, characterised by a surge in supply, which has been exerting pressure on rental decisions and rental ratesadjustment. Against this backdrop, the company continues to improve the quality of its asset, notably with the recent launch of 'PromptMove', a fully-furnished office rental solution designed under the ready-to-move-in and ready-to-use concept at Sathorn Square. This solution caters to SME entrepreneurs or small, fast-growing organisations with a need for private spaces without the burden of long-term rental commitments or extensive furnishing costs, allowing tenants to enjoy subscription-based payments."
