Phangnga: Thailand has convinced the World Heritage commitee to accept its nomination of the Andaman Sea Natural Reserves of Thailand to be named on Unesco's World Heritage list by the year 2025.
Rungnapa Phattanawiboon, deputy chief of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP), said the department lobbied for inclusion on the tentative list in December last year and planned to send its full report to the committee before February next year after a cabinet resolution backs the bid.
