webfact Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has set up an independent committee to resolve the long-standing land conflict, between the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and a group of indigenous Karen villagers of Ban Bangkloi in the Kaeng Krachan national park in Phetchaburi province. The committee has 28 members, comprising representatives from the state, civic society, such as P-move and the Ban Bangkloi community. They will be given 30 days to work out a solution. The Natural Resources and Environment Permanent Secretary Jatuporn Burutpat said today that the prime minister has also instructed the police to suspend legal action against the alleged land encroachers among the Karen villagers, until the panel develops a solution to the problem.

colinneil Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Independent my a++e, a guaranteed set up, hilltribe people have absolutely no chance of getting a fair hearing from the authorities here. Hilltribe people are treated disgustingly by authorities, as second class people, they are not even given proper I.D. cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be happy as 2nd class status, if they were Burmese they wouldn't rate any class other than exploited labour.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
