We are also worried that if a channel is dredged, it will affect the coral as locals have already mentioned.

Last week locals spoke out against the establishment of a new marina near Koh Hei in the Ao Kung area of Paklok (in between Ao Po and Boat Haven marinas).

 

Conservationists and locals are worried that there will be damage to the coral if construction of a marina is started along with the dredging of a channel for boats to access the new facility.

 

 

Yesterday (May 20) officials led by the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources (DMCR) Director-General Jatuporn Burutpat inspected the area where there is an issue of potential damage to coral reefs raised by local residents near the Ao Kung area of Paklok.
