The cabinet has approved moving the 2029 Korat horticultural expo site from Khong district to a dairy research centre in Pak Chong, which is Agriculture Ministry land so no new land purchase is needed. Budget stays at 4,281 million baht. The new site must be shown to AIPH by 4 September 2026 and BIE approval is sought by 6 October 2026. The expo opens 10 November 2029. For a local business, the main effect is on Khong and Pak Chong land use: Khong gets a use plan with public input, and Pak Chong's expected construction and visitor demand will come later, not now.
