BANGKOK: -- ACADEMICS have urged authorities to focus on solving water pollution problems to prevent future mass die-offs of aquatic animals.

 

Dr Nantarika Chansue, head of the Veterinary Medical Aquatic Animal Research Centre at Chulalongkorn University, said yesterday it was too late to do anything about the recent deaths of giant freshwater stingrays but authorities could work to restore the water quality in the Mae Klong River.

Since the end of September, there have been several reports of dead stingrays being found in multiple locations along Mae Klong River and its tributaries in Samut Songkhram.

Need hard punishment for pollution,for everyone ,rich and poor ,doubled for factories and prison for repeat offenders 

Sadly the polluters will continue to pollute until such time as they are made to regret the error of their ways, and the only way to do that is financially !

People supposed to do their job told to do their job.

 

Constant need in Thailand to remind people to do their job.

 

Actually that need is universal in fact.
