Howard University U.S. Department of Interior Washington University Memorial Foundation District of Columbia GREETINGS FROM THE INTERNATIONAL SALUTE COMMITTEE January 20, 2013 We are most pleased to extend hearty greetings and a warm welcome on the 22nd International Salute to the Life and Legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We congratulate our distinguished honorees. A special thank you is extended to the members of the Diplomatic Corps, committee members and the many volunteers for their hard work, continued commitment and support. A very special welcome is extended to the ladies and gentlemen of the audience who have come because you find the teachings of Dr. King to be an inspiration in your daily lives. We are particularly excited today as this salute to one who was truly a trailblazer comes on the eve of the second Inauguration of the 44th President of the United States of America , President Barack Obama. Our President holds such a special and dear place in our history having achieved major milestones during his first term. We now have health care reform; our troops have come home from Iraq; we have avoided fiscal calamities and closure has been brought in the hunt for Ben Laden. These are the types of accomplishments that Dr. King must have foreseen as he spoke of better days ahead for us even though he may not get there with us. As we enjoy these extraordinary moments in our history, let us remember that we live in opportunistic times. Times that demand that we lend our talents and energy towards improving our communities and the world in which we live. In accordance with the teachings of Dr. King, each of us can serve. Let us commit to greater service in the years ahead. * Founding Member (Deceased) 1 AN INTERNATIONAL SALUTE TO THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF DR.

Pinitbhand Paribatra, Ph.D. Academic Years 2017 ABSTRACT According to Thai constitutions, parliament has legal duty and power to engage in foreign policy, but it was not until 2007 that Thai parliament could play much of an assertive role in the foreign policy process. Parliamentarians amended section 224 of the constitution of 1997 in order to control and check the cabinet and government in the matter of negotiations with other states and international organizations and to allow itself to engage in the process of foreign policy making. Through adding more stages in conduct of negotiation, parliament could be a part of consideration and approval of negotiation framework and final agreed text, not merely acknowledgment.
