Traditionally, rockets were launched in the festival to ask the gods, Phaya Thaen and the Naga, to produce rain in the human world for rice farming and as a blessing for happiness. The ritual combines fertility rites which are important to the agrarian society with the Buddhist concept of making merit. There is no precise history of the festival, but some believe that it originated in Tai or Dai culture in China’s Yunnan Province. The province of Yasothon in Thailand is very popular for tourists who seek traditional culture. We can see the changing of Bun Bangfai from the past to present which includes pattern, ideas, and level of arrangement and from the original ritual to some unrelated ones. This paper presents a preliminary study about Bun Bung Fai in Isan focusing on Yasothon Province of Thailand case, not only because it is well known, but it is also an international festival clearly showing the process of commodification. How can we deal with Bun Bangfai festival of Yasothon especially the commodification process from local to global level? And from this festival, how can we interpret and understand Isan people’s way of life? The study found that the festival was full of capitalists, local and international who engage in every site.

  • When Does a Farmer Sell Rice?: a Case Study in a Village in Yasothon Province, Northeast Thailand
    Southeast Asian Studies. Vol. 33, No.4, March 1996 When Does a Farmer Sell Rice?: A Case Study in a Village in Yasothon Province, Northeast Thailand Y oshiaki NAKADA * I Introduction Thailand is a big rice exporter, but the Northeast region, which accounts for more than one third of the country's total rice acreage, produces little surplus rice [Fukui 1993: 22, 52J . In the region, irrigated paddylands are limited and rice is mostly rainfed. Production fluctuates greatly from year to year, and this prevents farmers from producing a constant surplus [Kono 1991: 57, 63-65J. Recently, however, commercial cultivation of rice started in part of the region, including Yasothon Province [Kono and Nagata 1992: 242J. Na Hom village in Yasothon, which I studied in detail, sold about one half of the harvest in 1992, for example [Nakada 1995: 542, Fig. 8J. It is often reported that farmers in Thailand do not wait for a favorable price in future but sell rice immediately after the harvest [Horita 1991: 147J, and this appears to be true in general. One study reported that 77-86% of rice for sale was sold just after harvest in the Central Region and the North, while in the Northeast, only 8% was sold immediately and the rest later: 58% within one month and 34% two to five months after harvest [Zenkoku Nogyo Kyodo Kumiai Chuokai 1987: 45, Table 19J .1) Why farmers in the Northeast sell rice later is yet to be studied. This paper searches for reasons for the delayed transaction of rice based on a case study of Na Hom Village in Kham Khuan Kaeo District in Yasothon Province (Fig.

  • An Integrated Land Use and Water Plan for Mahasarakham Province, Thailand
    An Integrated Land Use and Water Plan for Mahasarakham Province, Thailand A thesis submitted to the School of Planning of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Community Planning in the School of Planning of the School of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning 2013 by Yuwadee Ongkosit B.A. Geography, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand Committee Chair: David Edelman, Ph.D. Committee Member: Christopher Auffrey, Ph.D. Abstract This thesis identifies water-related problems that Mahasarakham Province, Thailand faces and the correlation between water and land use. Natural hazards are inevitable, and they ruin properties and cause changes to natural features. Two ways that the Thai government acts to mitigate their impact is to create or implement both structural and non-structural plans, but it heavily focuses on the first. The structural measures do not always relieve water-related problems. However, the non-structural measures can at least mitigate the effects posed on water resources. Land use and water resources are interconnected. One cannot separate one from another. Thus, this thesis also proposes an integrated water and land use plan that regulates the patterns of land use and prohibit certain uses at the national and local level. The proposed plan will help people better understand the interaction of land use and water resources. บทคัดย่อ วิทยานิพนธ์ฉบับนี้ ระบุปัญหาเกี่ยวกบนํั ้า ซึ่งจังหวัดมหาสารคาม ประเทศไทยประสบ รวมทั้งความสัมพันธ์ระหวางนํ่ ้าและการใช้ที่ดิน ภัยพิบัติทาง

  • The Exodus of Young Labor in Yasothon Province, Thailand
    Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 33, No.4, March 1996 Farming by the Older Generation: The Exodus of Young Labor in Yasothon Province, Thailand Kazuo FUNAHASHI * I Introduction Thailand has undergone rapid economic development in recent years, due in large part to the remarkable development of the industrial sector in and around Bangkok. This rapid economic development has given rise to a massive exodus of people from the countryside to the cities, unlike earlier migrations, which were between rural areas. The rural areas of Northeast Thailand that are the focus of this study are no exception to this.ll This paper looks broadly at the migration of labor in Yasothon Province in the Isan region of Northeast Thailand, and the attendant changes in agriculture and rural areas in that region. One feature of the methodology of this study is that, unlike many earlier studies, it does not focus on just one village. Surveys were conducted in 97 villages randomly 2 selected at the district (amphoe) level across the whole of Yasothon Province. ) Consequently, the phenomena discussed here can be taken as indicative of province-wide trends. * fttmffJ7(, Faculty of Home Economics, Kyoto Women's University, 35 Kitahiyoshi-cho, Imakumano, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto 605 1) As has been pointed out by Hayao Fukui [1995], Hiroshi Tsujii [1982J, Machiko Watanabe [1988J, Akira Suehiro and Yasushi Yasuda [1987J, surplus labor in the rural areas in the 1950s, and even during the rapid industrialization of the 1960s, was absorbed basically by the expansion of cultivated area through migration to rural areas (mass migration of peasants to open upland fields in the mountain forests).

  • 4. Counter-Memorial of the Royal Government of Thailand
    4. COUNTER-MEMORIAL OF THE ROYAL GOVERNMENT OF THAILAND I. The present dispute concerns the sovereignty over a portion of land on which the temple of Phra Viharn stands. ("PhraViharn", which is the Thai spelling of the name, is used throughout this pleading. "Preah Vihear" is the Cambodian spelling.) 2. According to the Application (par. I), ThaiIand has, since 1949, persisted in the occupation of a portion of Cambodian territory. This accusation is quite unjustified. As will be abundantly demon- strated in the follo~vingpages, the territory in question was Siamese before the Treaty of 1904,was Ieft to Siam by the Treaty and has continued to be considered and treated as such by Thailand without any protest on the part of France or Cambodia until 1949. 3. The Government of Cambodia alleges that its "right can be established from three points of rieivJ' (Application, par. 2). The first of these is said to be "the terms of the international conventions delimiting the frontier between Cambodia and Thailand". More particuIarly, Cambodia has stated in its Application (par. 4, p. 7) that a Treaty of 13th February, 1904 ". is fundamental for the purposes of the settlement of the present dispute". The Government of Thailand agrees that this Treaty is fundamental. It is therefore common ground between the parties that the basic issue before the Court is the appIication or interpretation of that Treaty. It defines the boundary in the area of the temple as the watershed in the Dangrek mountains. The true effect of the Treaty, as will be demonstratcd later, is to put the temple on the Thai side of the frontier.

  • Impacts and Effectiveness of Logging Bans in Natural Forests: Thailand
    Page 1 of 17 IMPACTS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF LOGGING BANS IN NATURAL FORESTS: THAILAND Sureeratna Lakanavichian INTRODUCTION Thailand has a total land area of 513 115 km 2 and a population of 61.1 million people (1998) with an annual growth rate of 1.1 percent (World Bank 2000). The economy consists of a diverse mix of agriculture, manufacturing and service industries. Rapid urbanization has taken place since the 1980s. The population density is about - 120 persons/km 2 (RFD 1998) and 23 percent of the population live in urban areas. Government estimates indicate that Thailand's forest cover declined from 53.3 percent of the total land area in 1961 to 25 percent in 1999 (Table 48). FAO (1999) estimates place forest cover at only 22.8 percent in 1995. Annual deformation rates have exceeded 3 percent for much of the time since 1961 (FAO 1998) and reached 3.9 percent between 1976 and 1982 (Jantakad and Gilmour 1999). Reforestation did little to stem the trend. A total of only 850.000 to 900.000 ha were planted between 1906 and 1996 (RFD 1998; Green World Foundation 1999). Table 48.
