Small-scale fishermen in Thailand’s eastern province of Rayong are to rally at the Map Ta Phut industrial estate today (Monday), to demand compensation from Star Petroleum Refining (SPRC), which is being blamed for oil spills in the seas off the province on January 25th and February 10th.

 

The low income fishermen have been heading towards the industrial estate, where SPRC’s refining facility is located, both by land and in small fishing vessels.

 

As of mid-February, about 8,000 people affected by the oil spills, including resort owners, tourism and restaurant operators and fishermen, have signed up for compensation from SPRC, which has promised to speed up payments based on the criteria used in oil leak of 2013.
