Sam Sen riverside community okays Chao Phraya project

BANGKOK’S Sam Sen riverside community has accepted the “Chao Phraya for All” development project after attending a conference with those involved in its construction including advisory staff from King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang.

“We previously did not take the project’s side because we misunderstood it. We thought it was a walkway or bicycle lane that would disconnect our community from the river,” Sam Sen riverside community head Weerasak Harnchokchaiskul told a press conference.
 He said his community could participate in the project via discussions in which they could voice opinions, suggestions and perhaps objections to the project’s design, with the possibility of adjustments being made to the design.
