Social media users flocked to the hashtag #saveThapLan, trending for two consecutive days after Tap Lan National Park risked losing more than 260,000 rai of land to the ALRO, according to the Cabinet resolution in 2023. The process is currently under public hearings. Meanwhile, villagers in Wang Nam Khiao District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, are asking for justice, confirming that they were there before the park was declared and that the area is no longer a forest.
