Community Sirinat National Park to Build Fences to Combat Erosion

The Minister of Natural Resources and Environment, Dr. Chalermchai Sri-on, has instructed Sirinat National Park in Phuket to move forward with urgent environmental restoration projects aimed at halting severe coastal erosion and improving water quality in the area. In response to the increasing impact of tidal activity along Phuket’s shoreline, the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation has allocated a budget of 4.789 million baht for the 2025 fiscal year to construct over 1,000 metres of sand fences. The structures will be installed in two phases along Sai Kaeo Beach in Mai Khao subdistrict, Thalang district, an area that has suffered from persistent erosion. The sand fences, designed to trap drifting sand and stabilise the shoreline, are expected to slow down the loss of beach material and help preserve the natural environment. Authorities hope that the initiative will support long-term coastal sustainability. In addition, a separate budget of 2.6 million baht has been approved for the improvement of wastewater drainage systems within the national park. The project will focus on dredging and upgrading water channels, particularly around the Nai Yang Canal, which is a known source of polluted runoff from surrounding communities. The aim is to improve drainage, reduce contamination flowing into the sea and visibly enhance the surrounding environment. Sirawat Suebsai, Chief of Sirinat National Park, stated that the current projects are designed not only to address immediate environmental concerns but also to support long-term ecological recovery through conservation and restoration efforts. “These measures will have lasting benefits for local ecosystems, tourism, and the quality of life for nearby residents,” he said. The Ministry has emphasised its commitment to sustainable environmental protection and has urged local communities and stakeholders to support the initiatives to ensure their long-term success.

Accident Grandmother Killed, 7 Hurt in Pickup-Songthaew Crash
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 78-year-old woman was killed and seven others injured after a pickup truck crashed into the rear of a parked songthaew, on the Nakhon Phanom–Na Kae Road on the morning of 2 August. The incident occurred near Ban Don Daeng, in Kham Toei subdistrict, Mueang District. Police, medics from Nakhon Phanom Hospital and multiple rescue units responded to the scene on Highway 2033. Emergency services arrived to find a yellow songthaew, operated by the Nakhon Phanom Transport Cooperative, with extensive damage to its rear and right-hand side. The vehicle had reportedly stopped on the roadside to pick up passengers when the collision happened. Debris and personal belongings were strewn across the road. Lying at the rear of the vehicle was the body of Ms. Ban aged 78, who had been a passenger. She was thrown from the vehicle upon impact and pronounced dead at the scene. Four other passengers, three women and one man, sustained injuries and were rushed to hospital. Nearby, a Toyota Vigo pickup truck bearing Nakhon Phanom registration plates was found with front-end damage. The driver, identified as 45-year-old Mrs. Chanakan, had been taking her two sons to tutoring classes in the city. All three suffered injuries and were also transported to Nakhon Phanom Hospital for treatment. Initial investigations suggest the songthaew had slowed or stopped on the shoulder of the road to pick up passengers. The pickup truck, which was travelling behind, may have been speeding and failed to notice the parked vehicle in time, leading to the high-impact crash. Police are continuing their investigation to determine the exact cause of the accident. CCTV footage from nearby areas is being reviewed as part of the probe. The body of the deceased has been released to her family for religious rites. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-08-03 -
