Map Ta Phut activists begin rally protesting government's list of harmful activities

RAYONG , Sept 30 - Amid tight security, environmental activists of Map Ta Phut, Thailand's largest industrial estate, a sprawling complex in Rayong, on Thursday began a protest urging the government to review its list of 11 types harmful industrial categories.

Eastern People’s Network coordinator Suthi Atchasai led some 200 members from many provinces to gather at the Rayong government office centre Thursday morning, even as more activists were on their way to join the protest in this province southeast of Bangkok.

Security has been tightened around the protest area as residents living near Map Ta Phut plan a counter-protest against Mr Suthi's group, saying most Eastern People’s Network members live elsewhere. Local residents said the outsiders should seek the opinions of the people who live and work at or nearby the industrial estate first if they want to demonstrate.

Maybe - maybe not, but the new Commander in Chief may change that! Here's hoping.
