Protect Krabi Campaign in Thailand

The Protect Krabi Network visit the expert panel appointed by the National Environment Board (NEB) to review the EIA report of the proposed Klong Ruo Coal Seaport ahead of the review meeting scheduled for 6th March, 2015. During the 13 km visiting journey, the group will voice their demand to stop coal projects and highlight the need to reform Thailand’s E(H)IA processes. The Klong Ruo Coal Seaport project is a plan of the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) to find ways of transporting imported coal from Indonesia, Australia and Africa to its 870 MW Coal Fired Power Plant. The port lies in Taling-chan sub district, Klong Kanan District, Krabi province, part of an area listed as one of Thailand’s few wetlands of international importance.
