information, among other considerations.
In 46 cases (23.71%), no violations were found
but the NHRCT did make recommendations
to promote and protect human rights to
the relevant agencies. Examples include:
1) In the case of a community in the Khlong San
district being impacted by the construction of
a hotel and commercial buildings under
the RTWO project, the NHRCT recommends
establishing a coordinating committee to assess
and propose fair solutions to address and
prevent the impact. Additionally, the committee
should monitor the restoration efforts closely
to compensate the affected residents for the
damages they have incurred; and 2) In the
case of a community in Pathum Thani province
experiencing distress due to the necessity of
relocating from long - term inhabited land with
legitimate ownership documents, the NHRCT
recommends that Pathum Thani Province,
relevant local authorities, and the Community
Organizations Development Institute (CODI)
consider providing assistance to residents facing
hardships. This assistance should align with the
guidelines for addressing housing stability issues
for low - income individuals in urban areas, such
as the Secure Housing Project. The remaining
25 cases (12.89%) were either resolved by relevant
authorities, withdrawn by the complainants,
under court litigation, or concluded for other
reasons.
The NHRCT has monitored the progress of
actions taken in response to the examination
of 136 cases of alleged human rights violations.
Out of these, 122 cases (89.71%) involved
government or private sector agencies that
fully or partially implemented the NHRCT’s
recommendations. Noteworthy instances
include: 1) In a case where the investigators of
a certain provincial police station delayed the
legal proceedings, the Royal Thai Police has
resolved the issue, and the case file has been
forwarded to the public prosecutor’s office
for further action; 2) In the case of opposing
the construction project of the Mae Lao Dam
in the Chiang Kham district, Phayao province,
the relevant authorities have canceled the
project and developed guidelines for water
management to maximize benefits and align
with the geographical and social conditions
of the area; and 3) In a case alleging that the
Department of Land Transport did not permit
people with mobility disabilities to obtain
a public vehicle driver’s license, the relevant
authorities have coordinated to invite the
petitioner to participate in the examination
for obtaining a public vehicle driver’s license.
The petitioner has successfully passed the
examination, resolving the matter; and etc.
The NHRCT also concluded monitoring in
10 cases (7.35%) due to reasons such as
cases that cannot be addressed based on
