The Last Breath of Sam Yan

In June 2020, there was an order from Property Management of Chulalongkorn University (PMCU) to relocate the Mazu Shrine (Saphan Lueang, Bangkok) to build tall buildings instead, including suing the administrator of the shrine for 4.6 billion baht. It led to the hashtag #saveChaoMaeThapthimShrine and a movement to protect the last breath of the historic area by neighborhood residents and students.
