A century-old sacred fig tree in the middle of a highway in Chiang Mai’s Muang district has again become the centre of controversy, despite a court order to relocate it.

 

The Administrative Court issued an order on July 2nd for the Highway Department to move the tree within three months.

 


 

 

 

As the deadline approaches next month and the department prepares for the relocation, environmental protection groups, led by the Committee for the Protection of Mae Ping and its Environment have vowed to appeal again to the court to stop the relocation.
