Greenpeace activists stage the plight of a dying farmer in front of the Government House to symbolize the dangers posed by genetically modified organisms and to warn the government that lifting the ban on open field trials of GMOs will trigger a deadly blow to Thai agriculture and environment. Greenpeace had constantly warned the government to uphold the GMO field trial ban. Recently, volunteers from the environment organization marched to the Government House to deliver a petition, signed by more than 10,000 Thai consumers and farmers, against genetically modified organisms.
