Vilka är det Juntan klassar som maffia?

Hej

Läste detta i dagens Bangkok Post, vanliga gräsrötter som t.ex opponerar sig mot planer på statliga projekt som kommer att påverka miljön och människorna i området negativt finns med den "Svarta lista" på 6000 namn som juntan har tagit fram och som sägs innehålla namnen på inflytelserika kriminella, maffia m.m. 

Enligt skribenten verkar listan snarare vara mer inriktad på alla som vågar opponerar sig mot juntan än maffian.

The voices of the people are under siege

Taweesak In-gwang is a resident of Chiang Rak Yai district in Pathum Thani province. Lamom Boonyong is a fisherman in Rayong. Though a couple of hundred kilometres apart, they have one thing in common .

They are branded "mafia" by the government because they dare to speak out against state development projects that will affect their environment and livelihoods.

For the past two years, Mr Taweesak has been campaigning against the planned construction of a waste-fired power plant in tambon Chiang Rak Yai in Sam Khok district. The site is only 1.5km from the Metropolitan Waterworks Authority's raw water storage plant which produces tap water for millions of people in Bangkok and its surrounds.

Mr Lamom is a fisherman who sued PTT Global over a major oil leak in 2013. He also opposes the expansion of a jetty at Map Ta Phut industrial estate and is in a fight with Rayong municipality over its land eviction scheme.

Both are grassroots environmentalists, unsung heroes who are trying to protect their homes. Under the military regime they are labelled a "mafia", presenting a "dark influence" against the government.

Det här var rätt intressant uttryckt:

.

"I have spoken to grassroots leaders and activists and can sense their growing concern. "If there is any difference between the Thaksin Shinawatra and NCPO regimes, it is that Thaksin initiated, but Gen Prayut makes it happen," one told me sarcastically.

Indeed. Almost every megaproject opposed by conservation groups and local communities has been given a green light by the military regime.

Under democratically elected governments, people can use the law to stop controversial projects, or make them more accountable. The military regime has revised that state of affairs .Many local communities are shocked to see how the NCPO is using its absolute power against local grievances. Apart from evoking Section 44's powers to transfer officials and fast-track industrial investment, the regime is targeting active citizens by branding them as "mafia" or a threat to national security."

Ja det råder ingen tvekan längre om att juntan för landet mot en ren militärdiktatur, demokrati känns väldigt avlägset just nu i Thailand.

Juntan slår mot allt och alla som opponerar sig nästan oavsett vad det gäller.
