<bold>O</bold>perators of Pak Moon dam have complied with a cabinet
resolution and opened all eight sluice gates, despite opposition from
villagers.

 

Residents of Hua Haew village, Khong Chiam district, Ubon Ratchathani
were against the opening of the gates because the lower water level would
affect their fish farming businesses.

 

About 100 villagers began their protest against the opening of the gates
on May 1.

 

The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand said it could not comply
with the cabinet resolution because of the protest.

 

The cabinet resolution ordered the gates to be opened for four months
beginning from May 15, to allow fish to spawn upstream.
