Thap Khlo district

Thap Khlo (Thai: ทับคล้อ, pronounced [tʰáp kʰlɔ́ː]) is a district (amphoe) in the eastern part of Phichit province, central Thailand.

In terms of geography, Thap Khlo is also the only district in Phichit that has mountain and community forest, which is part of the national park.

Therefore, Thap Khlo is the only district where giant krajiao plants (Curcuma latifolia) grow, especially in the community forests of the Khao Chet Luk sub-district.

The company was surprised that the cabinet adopted the resolution to close the mine given that a panel set up by the Ministry of Industry has not yet completed its investigation into pollution and health complaints.

The panel, set up in 2015, is composed of state agencies, affected villagers, academics, environmentalists, and Akara representatives.
