At 11am yesterday, the group of residents, led by Yutthana Duangsuwan, met with Damrongtham Centre chief, Prapan Khanphrasang and filed a formal complaint against the construction of the camp.
Mr Yutthana told Mr Prapan: “Right now the developers are clearing an area across from our residencies to build a worker̕s camp for 300-400 labour workers.
“Residents are concern about the cleanliness and safety of the area once the camp is full of foreign workers.
“We want officials to investigate and maybe put a stop to the construction of the camp,” he said.
More than 70 people have signed a petition against the camp and they have been told by Mr Prapan that officials will be sent to investigate and will tell them to stop the construction if it found that it will bring potential harm and destruction to the area.
