  • Language, Myth, Histories, and the Position of the Phong in Houaphan
    Neither Kha, Tai, nor Lao: Language, Myth, Histories, and the Position of the Phong in Houaphan Oliver Tappe1 Nathan Badenoch2 Abstract In this paper we explore the intersections between oral and colonial history to re-examine the formation and interethnic relations in the uplands of Northern Laos. We unpack the historical and contemporary dynamics between “majority” Tai, “minority” Kha groups and the imagined cultural influence of “Lao” to draw out a more nuanced set of narratives about ethnicity, linguistic diversity, cultural contact, historical intimacy, and regional imaginings to inform our understanding of upland society. The paper brings together fieldwork and archival research, drawing on previous theoretical and areal analysis of both authors. 1. Introduction The Phong of Laos are a small group of 30,000 people with historical strongholds in the Sam Neua and Houamuang districts of Houaphan province (northeastern Laos). They stand out among the various members of the Austroasiatic language family – which encompass 33 out of the 50 ethnic groups in Laos – as one of the few completely Buddhicized groups. Unlike their animist Khmu neighbours, they have been Buddhist since precolonial times (see Bouté 2018 for the related example of the Phunoy, a Tibeto-Burman speaking group in Phongsaly Province). In contrast to the Khmu (Évrard, Stolz), Rmeet (Sprenger), Katu (Goudineau, High), Hmong (Lemoine, Tapp), Phunoy (Bouté), and other ethnic groups in Laos, the Phong still lack a thorough ethnographic study. Joachim Schliesinger (2003: 236) even called them “an obscure people”. This working paper is intended as first step towards exploring the history, language, and culture of this less known group.

  • Waeng Phalangwan - a Lao-Isan Perspective on Thai Lukthung
    Review Article: Waeng Phalangwan - A Lao-Isan perspective on Thai Lukthung Mr. James Mitchell1 Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia Abstract In Lukthung Isan, Waeng Phalangwan (2002) makes a case for recognition of the Isan involvement in phleng lukthung, usually translated as Thai country music. The significant involvement of Isan people within the lukthung music industry has provided Isan people with an effective way of influencing Central Thai culture, when most other avenues were closed. The article examines Waeng’s Lao-Isan identity and his use of standard tropes to disguise a defiant radicalism. The centrepiece of Waeng’s argument is a revision of the history of ‘the king of Thai country music,’ Suraphon Sombatjaroen. Phalangwan redefines Suraphon’s current status as the symbol of Central Thai cultural supremacy by placing him within the context of two contemporaries, the Isan songwriters Chaloemchai Siruechai and Benjamin. Waeng’s history of Isan singers and groups of Isan songwriters in Bangkok during the late 1960s and 1970s can be cross- referenced with establishment histories to make possible a reinterpretation of the development of lukthung. The closing chapter of Lukthung Isan, detailing the existence of ‘communist’ lukthung, suggests that a re-evaluation of the counter-hegemonic potential of lukthung may be warranted. 1 Mailing Address: 256 Mu 5 Baan Hua Tanon, T.

  • New Ethnic Names for the Tin of Nan Province
    129 Journal of The Siam Society NEW ETHNIC NAMES FOR THE TIN OF NAN PROVINCE By what name shall we call these people, the Tin of Nan Province? Shall we use a name or names that outsiders have given them? Or shall we use the name (s) they use to designate themselves when talking to each other These questions are not unique to the Tin. Indeed, they depict the same situation faced by many tribal or ethnic groups around the world Whenever these questions have been seriously considered, the consensus has been that each ethnic group should be called by the name (s) that the people (of the ethnic group) use to designate themselves and not by the name (s) given to them by outsi­ ders. The main reason behind this consensus is that since in such cases outsiders are often the majority population, the names they give to an ethnic or minority group are more often than not derogatory terms, or at best terms that connote inferior status in society. Consequently the minority group often resents, secretly or openly, the. name (s) by which they are known to the ourside world. Also as a result, there has been a drive in recent decades in anthropological circles urging all of us to stop using name (s) given by, outsiders to an ethnic group and adopt instead the name (s) that people who are members of the ethnic group use in referring to themselves. The reason behind this is that no ethnic group will be likely to choose or use a name that is self-deprecatory.

  • POULSEN C Hildbirth and Tradition in N Ortheast Thailand
    POULSEN Childbirth and Tradition in Northeast Thailand in Northeast POULSEN Childbirth and Tradition About the Author Childbirth and Tradition in Northeast Thailand Forty Years of Development and Cultural Change Anders Poulsen This beautifully illustrated volume offers a rare study of Isan-Thai customs and belief associated with pregnancy and birth and how they have changed over almost half a century. Using a psychological and socio-therapeutic framework, Anders Poulsen discusses the function of various birth rites while giving an unmatched description of all traditions specifically connected to pregnancy and birth. He includes an interesting description of the tradition of confinement by fire (yuu-fai) and documents that it is still widely practiced, contrary to what has been reported. He also puts forward a theory of why some tradi- tions maintain their importance while others fade away. The findings of this study are supported by the transcription in Isan (and translated into English) of the ritual texts that are used in these rites. Anders Poulsen has long worked in the field of child psychology, in which he is well known internationally not ‘The distinctive feature and achievement of Anders Poulsen’s study is that it is longitudinal in scope least as founder-president of the International Association spanning some forty years. … For this reason alone it is unique in the social science ethnographic lit- of School Psychologists. In addition, he worked for two erature pertaining to Thailand, Laos, Burma (and possibly the rest of Southeast Asia). … It is a tour de decades as director of the Danish Psychological Press until force, unmatched by any other account pertaining … first to Northeast Thailand and Laos, and then to his retirement.

  • CERS Working Paper KUANSONG ZHUANG 1
    CERS Working Paper KUANSONG ZHUANG To race or not to race? – The (De)Racialisation of the Thai in History1 The identity belonging to the people of a nation… it is ascribed to oneself at birth. Thainess for the most part arises together with Thai people. Being a Thai means having such and such feelings, having a certain character. No one can change these things. M.R. Kukrit Pramoj, Prime Minister of Thailand, 1975-1976 (Thongchai 1994, 5) Being Thai, as Kukrit notes, assumes a form of identity linked to particular characteristics. As a speaker of the Thai language myself, I have been mistaken to be Thai by many native Thais around the world, as long as I act in the proper Thai manner, i.e. posture, mannerisms, speech. In my personal interactions, it would appear that I have become Thai, even though I am a true blue Singaporean. Many a time, I was asked if I was Thai. After I had replied in the negative, the next common question asked, would be whether I had Thai blood, specifically if I had a Thai parent. Only after, would they ask if I was working in Thailand or had lived in Thailand for a long time. My personal experiences of being considered Thai, had thus led me to question why I had been treated as such. Why had I been considered as Thai, on the basis on my appearance, manners and speech? Why had I been considered to have Thai blood in my ancestry? This paper will try to explain what constitutes Thai-ness.
