Establishment of the complaint centers comes after the NCPO ordered local governments to set up facilities to offer information and advice to the public, a direct method to file complaints with public agencies, provide one-stop service counters, hear problems or take recommendations from the public.

Chonburi’s provincial service center is a joint operation of the Sattahip Naval Base, Region 2 police, the 14th Military Circle and the Chonburi State’s Attorney. It will be managed by the Chonburi Peace Maintenance Department and Chonburi police.

Issues expected to be handled are problems with drugs, deforestation and public-land encroachment, illegal labor, human trafficking and judicial mediation.
