More mangrove trees added to the shore in Bangkok’s Bang Khun Thien district

The seedlings have been planted in concrete tubes to stop them from being washed away by strong waves.

Before Sunday’s activity, Bangkok authorities have planted 7,500 mangrove seedlings in the area this year – 2,000 on May 26, 500 on June 6, 1,000 each on June 13, June 27 and October 30, and another 2,000 this Saturday.
