Deforestation Still A Problem: Yingluck

She only lives down the road so I might start stalking her again. It's relatively easy; the helicopter on standby tells you when she is at home.

On standby even after it gets dark ?

Turning to the OP, I thought a major reforestation-project was promised several months ago, during/just-after the floods ? Whatever happened to that (and the money) I wonder ?

I dare say there is a big field in which a guy from Myanmar is paid to make sure a load of old dead sticks are sticking out of the ground each day in case of inspection whilst some other guy drives round in his new Lambo.

Putting a Shinawatre in charge of reforestation is like putting a cat in charge of mixing the tuna salad.

Dear sir, no offence, may I put your attention to the fact that most cats are very capable especially in mixing tuna salads, although I must admit the result might end up in the wrong stomach

i've said this so many times.......conservation doesn't follow national borders - if you think that moving to another country is relevant then you simply haven't grasped the basics.

If you think it is some form of argument - then think (again?) - it is irrelevant and a nothing more than a red herring.

The proposal to promote co-operation between the private sector and the government works. Everyone has an interest in the proper operation of the flood canals. The government got that part right.

Now, the government just needs to do something about the deforestation. Madame Prime Minister, a little less PR and more action like moving forward with the charging of the culprits. A more thorough effort to obtain convictions and mandatory jail time and stiff fines for those convicted would protect the forests. Allow the brave officials at the forestry and natural resources ministries to continue remove the encroaching resorts and people will get the message.

So many national parks employees are getting paid under the table to cut down rare trees and murder endangered species, how can the government compete? it takes the PEOPLE to monitor these policing agencies and more private investigations into these government outfits by journalists and reporters without borders.

I spoke with a forest monastery owner the other day and he told me to be careful for most of these journalists and environmental heroes often get killed or go missing for unknown reason in the LOS........

"with a forest monastery owner" - a 'what"?

Please take care of what you say, even in jest about public officials. Some Thai officials read this site, and they have no sense of humour.

Yes all you poor folk out in the countryside, stop cutting down trees, you're creating a problem for us since there'll none left for us to cut when we deforest and dam Mae Wong National Park
