The Interior Ministry has approved the creation of a new village in Bo Klue district of Nan province, to take in residents of another village that was badly damaged by a landslide in 2018.
Ethnic Lua residents who lived in Ban Huai Khab were not allowed to return to the village after the landslide, as it was located in a disaster-prone area and cannot be rebuilt, according to permanent secretary Suttipong Juljarern.
