BANGKOK – A group of trees have gathered in Lumpini Park and refused to leave until Nationmultimedia stops printing the ‘Daily Xpress.’
The trees formed a small grove in the southwest corner of the park and disrupted passerby by shaking their leaves. A 29-year-old orange tree was said to be particularly distraught and shedding its bark.
Park regulars say the trees were upset that ‘The Nation’ editors had belittled the sacrifices of trees around the world by printing such nonsense on them.
“When the constitution was sent to every household in the country last year, for the sake of the country, I persuaded the trees to let it go,” commented a 57-year-old tuk tuk driver who eats lunch every day in their shade. “But 100,000 copies of this thing every day for 365 days, they think it’s genocide.”
Some environmental activists have already joined the trees and have been seen bringing them water. “I totally see their point,” said one. “This is the biggest waste of paper since Jake Needham’s last novel.”
The trees will reportedly protest silently in the park for the indefinite future.
