Residents near Suvarnabhumi seek court protection


(BangkokPost.com) - Residents affected by noise pollution around Suvarnabhumi airport filed a lawsuit at the Administrative Court, asking it to ban air traffic at the airport between 10pm to 5am.


About 50 residents went to the court on Wednesday morning, saying that the period should be their rest time.


Chaisak Angsuwan, director-general of the Aviation Department, admitted that Thai economics especially aviation business will be greatly affected if the court grants the residents emergency protection and bans the air traffic between the time.


Airport of Thailand (AOT) chief executive Chana U-sathaporn expressed his worry on the case. The matter will be brought into a board meeting on Thursday for an urgent discussion.


Air Marshal Chana insisted AOT does not neglect the complaints of the residents, adding that it is willing to pay them compensation fee if the new estimated figure is higher than the previous one.


He said AOT has set aside a budget of 3 to 4 billion baht to cover the compensation cost.
