The products should be extended to decorations and art such as fashioning the earthen pottery into lamp bases, clocks, aroma therapy burners and tableware products, 3) Community pottery producers should form a group and network with exporters in determining fair trade agreements and reasonable pricing so that the business and cooperation is sustainable by all sides, 4) Pottery products should be distributed and dispersed to markets in other provinces. The products should always be displayed and ready for export at national and foreign product exhibitions. Earthen pottery producers should work with other producers of similar products such as porcelain and ceramic producers and display their products together and 5) Promote the advantages and benefits of earthen Mon pottery.

Abstract: The Province of Pathumthani has played an important role in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR) in terms of its economics, industry, education, society, and culture in driving the urbanization process. However, the urban areas have been sprawling without control. Some urban areas have expanded to areas with risk of flooding. Especially, in the past 10 years, Pathumthani has suffered from more frequent and more severe floods, which might be affected by climate change. Together with inefficient climate change adaptation plans, the areas with risk of high impacts of flooding have expanded, making the urban settlements in Pathumthani face even higher impacts.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 29, 2013 Accepted: May 29, 2013 Online Published: August 1, 2013 doi:10.5539/ass.v9n10p198 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v9n10p198 Abstract Piphat Mon is the traditional form of music of Burmese Mon people. Following Mon immigration into Thailand, the art form was adopted and adapted by Thais as a medium for entertainment and worship. In the current climate of globalization and the influence of western trends, representation of Piphat Mon has been reduced to funeral ceremonies in a small collection of Thai provinces. This research examines the historical background and current conditions of Piphat Mon in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, its primary location in Northeast Thailand, with the aim of creating a set of performing arts standards. The results of this research show that Piphat Mon has changed in light of social and cultural changes to Thailand since 1998. Nowadays there are a number of problems with artistic performances of Piphat Mon in Korat, particularly concerning the attitudes of the performers, the sound, the equipment and the location.

This has effects on the lifestyles and activities of urban people, which in turn significantly affects the health of the city. The quality of the urban environment plays an important role in public health with respect to urban issues ranging from quality of utilities and services to quality of life.
