Bangkok Transport Network

I believe that almost everyone that goes to Bangkok will use at least one of Bangkok Public Transports such as public bus, BTS skytrain, MRT underground and many more. However, nowadays, many people may think that there are a few stations in BTS skytrain and MRT.

For me, I have also thought like that. But...
Do you know that Thai government have planned Bangkok Transport Network since 2005?
A lot of people may see the construction of skytrain rail and station in Purple line (Bangyai-Rat Burana) which is one of 9 lines. All of 9 lines is be planned to complete about next 20 years (such a long time).
