Thaicom, a leading Asian satellite operator and spacetech company, has announced that its subsidiary, TC 142 Company, has entered into an agreement with Amazon Leo, Amazon’s low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network.
Under the agreement, Thaicom will serve as an authorised distributor and landing rights holder for Amazon Leo in Thailand.
Thaicom says it will deliver fast, reliable broadband connectivity from Amazon Leo to downstream distributors, expanding connectivity to customers, communities and businesses beyond the reach of existing networks.
With Amazon Leo, Thaicom plans to expand its service portfolio with cutting-edge satellite communications technology, providing high-speed internet access regardless of geographical constraints.
Amazon Leo, says Thaicom, will provide fast, reliable internet to a wide range of customers, significantly improving the quality and reliability of broadband for regional, rural and remote Thai communities.
To deliver on its mission, Amazon Leo is deploying thousands of satellites in low Earth orbit, linked to a global network of antennas, fibre, and internet connection points on the ground. Its lineup of compact, high-performance antennas – Leo Nano, Leo Pro, and Leo Ultra – communicates with satellites passing overhead.
Amazon began deploying its constellation in April 2025 and has completed nine missions to date. There are currently more than 200 Amazon Leo satellites in orbit, and Amazon is continuing to increase its production, processing and launch rates ahead of an initial service rollout.
