Thread: Phimai residents outraged over new park status

LOCAL PEOPLE in Nakhon Ratchasima have expressed strong opposition against the Fine Arts Department’s decision to declare their houses as part of a historical site.

Although the Phimai Historical Park was established in 1936, the department did not fully demarcate its zone until 2016.


The demarcation has caused a controversy as it covers as much as 2,658 rai (411 hectares) of land in Nakhon Ratchasima’s Phimai district. The whole area of Phimai Municipality is in the zone.
