Chiang Mai Night Safari finally opened
Report from Bangkok Post dated Tuesday 7 February 2006 :-
Chiang Mai Night Safari finally throws open its doors after long delay After a 10-month delay, the controversial 1.15-billion-baht Chiang Mai Night Safari Park finally celebrated its grand opening yesterday, but without the long-awaited 175 wild animals it is trying to obtain from Kenya. The ceremony was presided over by Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra who will also chair a mobile cabinet meeting at the zoo today. Besides an extravagant performance staged by the zoo's director, Plodprasop Suraswadi, a highlight of yesterday's opening was the debut of a pair of white tiger cubs - Lizhen and Zhaojin - donated by a zoo in China as a gesture of friendship between Bangkok and Beijing. Zoo staffers said the stressed-out cubs had arrived at the zoo just three days ago and were having trouble adjusting to their new surroundings and Thailand's hot weather. Mr Thaksin said the zoo was part of the multi-billion-baht Chiang Mai World project that was aimed to make his hometown the country's ''second capital''. ''The night safari is my proud achievement. And I will carry on with it no matter how hard the protesters attack this project,'' said Mr Prodprasop, who has been bombarded with accusations of irregularities involving the zoo's operation over the past several years. The zoo was originally scheduled to open on April 13 last year, but the date was postponed several times, partly because of problems involving the import of wild animals from foreign countries, including Kenya and Australia. The Kenyan government suspended its plan to deliver 175 birds and animals to Thailand last year following a controversy over Mr Plodprasop's plan to serve the meat of wild animals, such as giraffe and zebra steaks, at a zoo restaurant. Most of the 900 animals being displayed at the Night Safari were obtained from domestic zoos, with the exception of white tigers from China and hippos from Germany. The park, however, may receive animals from Australia soon. An Australian tribunal yesterday approved the import of eight endangered Asian elephants from Thailand as part of an elephant-koala exchange deal between the Thai and Australian governments. Under the deal, Thailand is to send the elephants, aged 3-8, to zoos in Sydney and Melbourne in exchange for at least two koalas from Australia to be kept at the Night Safari. The eight elephants have spent months waiting in quarantine in Thailand as animal groups in both countries protested their export to Australia, saying they were better off in Thai camps than living in Australian zoos. But the Australian court yesterday said the importation could go ahead on the condition that the zoos met a list of criteria, including providing appropriate flooring and installing closed-circuit televisions. Rebecca Brand, a campaign officer for the International Fund for Animal Welfare, said animal groups were pleased with the decision. ''Yes, the animals will be coming, but we have vastly improved their welfare as a result of this case,'' she said. ''This will set a standard that will be looked at around the world.'' Thailand is estimated to have about 1,600 elephants living in the wild and about 3,000 captive. |

Tunnel route study (from Chiang Mai to Mae Hong Son) province approved by Cabinet
Report from Bangkok Post dated Wednesday 8 February 2006 :-
Tunnel route study (from Chiang Mai to Mae Hong Son) province approved by Cabinet : Mae Hong Son to Chiang Mai shortcut By Preeyanat Phanayanggoor Chiang Mai _ The Cabinet yesterday gave the go-ahead for a feasibility study of the proposed tunnel under the northern mountain ridge to create a shortcut from Chiang Mai to Mae Hong Son province. The Ministry of Transport would be in charge of studying the viability and construction costs of the project, which would help shorten the route between Chiang Mai to Mae Hong Son by 60km, said government spokesman Surapong Suebwonglee. There was still no estimated cost for the project, he said. However, it was likely to be 20% more expensive than a normal road because of the costs of digging the tunnel through the mountain ridge. The Chiang Mai-Samoeng-Mae Hong Son route was proposed by businesses in the eight upper northern provinces - Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Lamphun, Phrae, Nan, Mae Hong Son, Lampang and Phayao. But a prominent Chiang Mai environmentalist, Nikhom Phutta, of Wildlife Fund Thailand, opposed the project saying it would cause grave damage to the dense forest. ''The mountain ridge between Chiang Mai and Mae Hong Son is covered by a wide range of prime forest. Road construction will cause an unacceptable impact on this fragile ecosystem and on wild animals,'' he said. The road would also lead to an influx of illegal goods, including weapons and drugs, from Burma via Mae Hong Son to Chiang Mai, said Mr Nikhom. The existing Chiang Mai-Mae Hong Son route was well-known for being tough on drivers as it has almost 2,000 curves, but this was part of the innate charm of these northern provinces, he said. The cabinet yesterday also approved around a five-billion-baht budget for development projects in Chiang Mai and all seven upper northern provinces. The approved projects include a 300 million baht to tackle floods in Chiang Mai, a plan to build another knowledge park in Chiang Mai, similar to Thailand Knowledge Park (TK Park) in Bangkok, a plan to introduce the sufficiency economy concept to Karen communities and the preservation plan around Chiang Mai's old city duct. For the upper northern provinces, the cabinet approved around 27.6 million baht for a plan to develop the Wiang Lor archeological site in Phayao and 13 projects under the strategy to turn the region into a software and medical hub as well as to become a gateway for investment and transportation, connecting the Greater Mekong Sub-region countries and members of the Bangladesh-India-Myanmar-Sri Lanka-Thailand Economic Cooperation, or Bimstec. The projects include a new road running parallel to the railway between Chiang Mai and Lamphun, and improvement of Mae Hong Son airport. The cabinet, however, approved only 300 million baht out of the proposed 13 billion baht for the flood early warning system along the Ping River, a top priority of locals. Mr Surapong said the government wanted to wait for proposals from foreign investors about water management megaprojects, to be considered on April 28, before making any decisions about flood prevention schemes. |
