Huawei declared that it plans to build a third data center in Thailand in 2021.
The tech giant will spend approximately 23 million US Dollars (700 million Baht) on the facility, an amount similar to its first two data centers in the country.
In 2018, the construction of Huwaei’s first data center in Thailand was completed and in 2019, the second data center was finished and is located in Bangkok.
