"sluice gate"

Deputy Prime Minister General Chatchai Salikulya would not say directly if the plan to build the controversial Mae Wong dam in order to prevent floods and save the drought-plagued Lower Sakae Krang basin would be scrapped, but he affirmed that concerned parties had at least reached a “resolution” – for now.

The RID's sluice gate against sea-water intrusion is being introduced on Pak Pra canal without residents' knowledge, posing threat to livelihoods and their self sufficient economy as much as the lake's ecosystems.

Patthalung – A group of artists demonstrated their support of those opposing the planned construction of a sluice gate on the Pak Pra canal, part of the complex wetland network of Songkhla Lake, where the country’s first Ramsar site of Phu Kuan Ki Sian was declared 20 years ago.
