By considering the wording of the two provisions, it could be seen that, the right of public participation was a mere mythology of a statute of law that only provides substantive rights that people can participate in wildlife conservation and protection.  However, Procedural Rights did not appear to be clear how the public could participate or give opinions to the state to listen to opinions by means of. The myth that arose on such statutory provisions required the public to accept their role within the legislative content of limited rights.</p> <p>Therefore, the said provisions for the recognition of the rights of the participation of the people should be amended and added to the protection of the rights of public participation in a clear and concrete process.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Huachiew Chalermprakiet Law Journal}, author={Arreemit, Wichuda}, year={2022}, month={Apr.}, pages={15–39} }
