Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin recently inspected the progress of the Prem Prachakon Canal development project. This project focuses on transforming the canal into a tourist attraction and a convenient transportation route, including the construction of new parks and docks to support tourism and transportation in Bangkok. It is also supported by the private sector and local communities, which helps organize the area for maximum benefit.
During his visit, local residents warmly welcomed the Prime Minister with waves and photographs. He emphasized the importance of community development in achieving stability and improving the environment, expressing gratitude for the community’s support, as they play a significant role in the project and are among its beneficiaries.
The Prime Minister also highlighted the importance of creating a favorable impression and convenience for tourists. He discussed solving traffic issues and tourist scams to make Bangkok a safer and more attractive city. The development of the Prem Prachakon Canal is part of a larger plan to enhance the quality of life and the environment of the city.
The development of the Prem Prachakon Canal is not only a project for canal restoration and improvement but also includes the construction of dams, allocation of areas for parks and housing, and the designation of safe areas for community flood drainage to prevent flooding issues and manage environmental aspects of the canal.
The outcomes of this development are expected to improve drainage efficiency and promote tourism in the area, as well as enhance the living conditions of the community. The Prime Minister reiterated the government’s intention to promote better living conditions and a healthy environment for the people of Bangkok by using this project as a model for future area developments.
