Protesters against the biomass power plant in Na Bon district of the southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat have been rallying in front of the Ministry of Energy in Bangkok since this morning (Monday), to demand that the government fulfil its pledge to set up a committee to undertake a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) study of the waste-to-energy project.

 

Led by Prasitchai Nunuan, the protesters, collectively known as the “Save Nabon Group”, claimed that they have been waiting for half a year for the government to fulfil its promisein setting up the SEA committee to study the project and to hold public hearings to allow local people to air their views.

 

During the rally, the protesters displayed pictures of Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and Pol Gen Wirachai Songmetta, a major shareholder in Absolute Clean Energy Public Company (ACE), which funds the building and operations of the bio-mass power plants.

So what is wrong with that, a bio mass generator?

They also should put one up in CM, so all 2.5 particle is not an issue anymore.

Burning in an oven instead of out in the open with lots of smoke, dominating the air over there and even in BK.

I know there is one in Satun, nothing wrong with it, running on rubber trees and so on.

But there is a conflict of interest in the deals, high officials are major stock holders, so almost owing the company. Subsidies of government going that way?

Buying land cheap or what ever you can think.

Construction is questionable and monopoly?
