โกหกคำโต (THE WHOPPER)
Weeraphan Thavorn
At the border near a national park, managed by the state through the Department of Irrigation, plans are underway to build 7 more dams. The stated goal is to create water management areas for stability and sustainable benefits for the country's people. However, critics argue that despite claiming the need for water, the construction process involves destroying water reservoirs in the form of forests and disrupting watershed ecosystems in various parts of the country. Millions of villagers have long suffered the consequences of these dams, facing not only the direct impact but also grappling with unfulfilled promises from the government. Now, a new phase of dam construction is starting, prompting questions about who will resist and who will be forced to accept the recurring challenges.
