Thailand Investigates Increasing Dugong Death Toll in Krabi
File photo. Source: Wikipedia Thailand's dugong population is facing a serious decline, prompting an expanded investigation into rising death rates. The recent discovery of a dead juvenile dugong on Si Boya Island has heightened concerns about the survival of this vulnerable species. The dugong was found just days after another adult female was discovered dead in Krabi's Khao Thong subdistrict. Natural Resources and Environment Minister, Chalermchai Sri-on, has called for urgent interventions to combat the alarming situation. The critical decline in seagrass, which serves as the primary food source for dugongs, has been identified as a major cause of the increased mortality. This issue is particularly acute in Trang province, a once-thriving habitat for dugongs and seagrass diversity. Reports indicate that the dugong population in the Andaman Sea has lost at least 35 members this year. With seagrass levels only half as plentiful as previous years, the survival of remaining dugongs is in jeopardy. To address this, the ministry has tasked the Department of National Parks, Wildlife, and Plant Conservation, along with the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources, to implement crisis recovery and protection measures. These include seagrass bed restoration, supplementary feeding, and dugong rescue training courses. Marine expert Thon Thamrongnawasawat has highlighted the urgency of the situation on social media, pointing out that 72 dugongs have died over the past two years. The death rate has escalated from approximately one per month seven years ago to nearly four per month in 2023. Given this trajectory, experts warn that dugongs could face local extinction in the Andaman Sea within the next few years if current trends continue. Minister Chalermchai plans to monitor progress closely and intends to bring this crisis to the international stage at the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference in Azerbaijan, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2024-11-19 -

Well then, I'll leave you and Globs to it then. The two of you can bro-hump each other to eternity. I beg you though not to post any photos of the event. They would be too painful to look at. 😊 -

TM30 - real estate agent reports online, but you still need to go and report it yourself!!!
The TM.30 notification that was made for your arrival is obviously registered in immigration's database but for some unfathomable reason some, if not all, immigration offices ask for a new copy of that TM.30 notification with ever application of extension of stay. However, you mention "a new TM-30 receipt". Are you saying that the immigration office wants a new TM.30 notification to be made and wants a copy of the receipt for that new notification? That would be weird. -

We are all agog waiting for your far more profound utterings. Please don't keep us waiting. Seriously, if someone doesn't know how to use the ignore function they only need to ask. Says something about posters that complain about other posters yet will not put them on ignore..........................
