Gas, waqf and Barclays Capital: a decade of resistance in southern Thailand

Larry Lohmann

The struggle of villagers in the Chana district of southern Thailand to resist the construction of the Trans Thai-Malaysia gas pipeline and its various spin-off industries illustrates some of the ways in which questions of ethnic, religious and class conflict are tightly bound up with industrial development, the global financial sector and human rights abuses. While the Thai elite and international investors portray the project as `socially responsible', the protesting villagers have increasingly turned to Islamic principles of waqf — land designated as given over to God and therefore available for common use — to articulate their opposition.

Key Words: environmental protest • industrial development • land rights • pipelines • Thai Muslims • TTM
