The Maniq community, a group of hunter-gatherers known as Sakai, is calling for certain areas to become designated as conservation places.

A group of Tibetan church from the so-called Five Precept Protection Committee, which is based in the South, made the call for social protection.

The party visited the Satun state to observe the development of the national reconciliation project.

The board visited the Maniq people in the Thung Wa area during the trip, according to Phra Sophon Woraporn, deputy main of the Songkhla Tibetan clergy order and committee member.

In the Bantad hills range across Satun, Trang, and Phatthalung, there are 382 Maniq tribesmen. They coexist peacefully with character and use speakers to communicate in Thai with people outside of their populations.

The top monk claimed that there are various groups of nomadic Maniq tribespeople dispersed throughout Satun. The commission has talked about ways to protect the tribe’s distinctive cultural identity and shield them from inside influences.

Setting aside places where the Maniq can live their normal life and been studied by researchers was one of the way, according to Phra Sophon.

According to the top priest, the goal would be to close the gap between tribespeople and outsiders and to stop any pretexts from starting a conflict.

Somchai Seanglai visited the Maniq neighborhood in Phatthalung’s Pa Bon area on Thursday with a group of fellow senators.

The surname” Rakpabon ,” which means” Preserving Pa Bon” and reflects the district’s name, has been given to the tribespeople.

According to Mr. Somchai, the Maniq used to receive membership cards and access to state welfare cards.
