'Heart for Sea' solidarity in Teluk Patani

Greenpeace's most iconic ship the Rainbow Warrior arrives in Teluk Patani to stand in solidarity with communities expressing their concerns about the coal-fired project in Thepha district.

Around one hundred fishing boats belonging to communities from Sakom, Thepha, and Suan Kong in Songkhla province participated in this demonstration.
A 30 x 30 meter banner was carried on the water from the coast of Koh Kham, picturing characters from the Nang Talung, a well-known shadow puppet show, to symbolize people's opposition to the proposed 2,200 megawatt coal-fired plant in Thepha.

The Rainbow Warrior is in Thailand for “Rainbow Warrior Ship Tour 2018: 100% Renewable Energy for All". Greenpeace will be working with communities and with concerned citizens in Thailand to celebrate people power and encourage policymakers to phase out coal and to champion solutions through an inclusive and sustainable economic development model based on just, affordable, sustainable renewable energy system.
