In the name of attracting investors, the Land Bridge and draft SEC Act will carve up Southern Thailand for deep-sea ports, railways, and motorways. While communities in Ranong, Chumphon, and across the South are left to carry the real cost, without meaningful participation in decisions over their own lives and lands.


Land seized. Seas disrupted. Livelihoods destroyed. Biodiversity threatened. Communities sidelined.

๐Ÿ“ข At Manushya Foundation, our stance is clear: no development project should ever move forward without meaningful engagement with affected communities.


And as Thailand seeks OECD accession, the government must prove that โ€œdevelopmentโ€ is not just investor-friendly, but rights-based, community-centred, and accountable to the people most affected.


Communities are not โ€œanti-developmentโ€ for defending their homes, livelihoods, and futures. They are rights-holders resisting a model that treats the South as a sacrifice zone.


โœŠ Stand with Southern communities.
