  • The Potential of Tourist Attractions: a Case Study of 2 Rural Connecting Districts in the Western Part of Thailand
    The Asian Conference on Sustainability, Energy and the Environment 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan The Potential of Tourist Attractions: A Case Study of 2 Rural Connecting Districts in the Western Part of Thailand Areerut Patnukao, Sirivilai Teerarojanarat Chulalongkorn University, Thailand 0533 The Asian Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2013 Official Conference Proceedings 2013 Abstract The area along the Thai-Burmese border in the western part of Thailand is dominated by mountain ranges lying in a north-south direction. This area is enriched with national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and diversity of ethnic minority groups. Some of these places are promoted to be tourist attractions. However, sustainable tourism is still in its infancy. The project entitled “Geographical Techniques for the Study of Cultural Diversity and Tourism Development” was launched in 2010. The study area covered the connecting area of two rural districts - Dan Chang district, Suphan Buri province and Ban Rai district, Uthai Thani province. This paper presents the first stage of this project aiming to explore and identify the potential of tourist attractions in the study area. Methodology involved field survey, classification and assessment of potential of tourist attractions, development of GIS tourism databases, and implementation of SWOT analysis. Results showed that tourist attractions are based almost entirely on their cultural and natural heritages. Based on the SWOT analysis, their strengths are in term of the cultural uniqueness and the richness of forestry and wildlife. Their major weaknesses are the incompleteness of physical transportation and facilities and the uncooperative attitudes between the relevant government agencies. The opportunity is that these areas can be promoted to become new tourist attractions at both domestic and international levels.

    Project for the Comprehensive Flood Management Plan Main Report for the Chao Phraya River Basin in the Kingdom of Thailand Chapter 9 Strategy of Master Plan Formulation CHAPTER 9 STRATEGY OF MASTER PLAN FORMULATION 9.1 Basic Approach to the Master Plan 9.1.1 Concept of Master Plan The Chao Phraya River Basin is composed of three (3) areas; namely, the Highlands, the Upper Central Plain and the Lower Central Plain. The characteristics of each area and its required measures have been examined to formulate the Master Plan of Flood Disaster Management for the Chao Phraya River Basin. The study area is outlined from flood disaster management aspects as follows: 1) The Highlands are the watersheds of the major tributaries of the Chao Phraya River Basin, which are the Ping, Wang, Yom and Nan rivers. The areas are covered by forest, but the forest area has been devastated and the degraded forest areas have been identified by the Royal Forest Department. For flood disaster management, restoration of the degraded forest areas and the improvement of forest management are required. 2) The Upper Central Plain is located at the Upper Nakhon Sawan and composed of the river basins of the Ping, Wang, Yom, Nan and Chao Phraya. During the 2011 flood in the Upper Central Plain the inundation started along the Yom River in late July and at Nakhon Sawan in early September. The areas are flat and have wide low-lying areas along the rivers, which have a functional role in natural flood retarding basin and partly habitual inundation areas in rainy season, but partly used as agricultural lands in dry season.

  • Thailand's Progress on the Elimination of The
    Thailand’s Progress on the Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labor: 2015 1) Prevalence and Sectoral Distribution of Child Labor 1.1 In what sectors or activities were children involved in hazardous activities or other worst forms of child labor? For all sectors, please describe the work activities undertaken by children. In particular, if children were engaged in forestry, manufacturing, construction, fishing, agriculture, and street work, please provide information on the specific activities (within the sector) children engage in. Please also explain the hazards for any sector in which the dangerous nature of the work activities may otherwise be unclear to the lay person (four further explanation, please HAZADOUS ACTIVITIES and WORST FORMS OF CHILD LABOR in the Definitions section). Answer: According to the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Board Thailand witnessed a reduction in the population of children ages 0-17 years from the years 2010-2015. In 2015 there were roughly 14.48 million children between 0-17 years, a reduction compared to 15.42 million in 2010 and 14.86 million in 2013. On the other hand, Thailand found an increase in the number of students enrolled in the national education system, from 4.99 million students enrolled in 2000 up to 5.33 million students in 2013. These factors have contributed to a reduction of working children in the labor force. In this regard, the Department of Labour Protection and Welfare (DLPW) examined quarterly data of Thailand’s labor force status survey1. In the 3rd quarter of 2015, there were 38.77 million people in the labor force or available for work.

  • A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand

E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 20, 2014 Accepted: June 12, 2014 Online Published: June 26, 2014 doi:10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 Abstract This qualitative investigation aims to identify problems with cultural tourism in nine Thai temples and develop a model for improved tourism management. Data was collected by document research, observation, interview and focus group discussion. Results show that temples suffer from a lack of maintenance, poor service, inadequate tourist facilities, minimal community participation and inefficient public relations. A management model to combat these problems was designed by parties from each temple at a workshop. The model provides an eight-part strategy to increase the tourism potential of temples in Bangkok: temple site, safety, conveniences, attractions, services, public relations, cultural tourism and management. Keywords: management, cultural tourism, temples, Thailand, development 1. Introduction When Chao Phraya Chakri deposed King Taksin of the Thonburi Kingdom in 1982, he relocated the Siamese capital city to Bangkok and revived society under the name of his new Rattanakosin Kingdom (Prathepweti, 1995). Although royal monasteries had been commissioned much earlier in Thai history, there was a particular interest in their restoration during the reign of the Rattanakosin monarchs.

  • April 12, 2021 Thai Enquirer Summary Covid-19 News • the 3 Wave of The
    April 12, 2021 Thai Enquirer Summary Covid-19 News The 3rd wave of the Covid-19 outbreak has now spread from entertainment hubs in Bangkok to 70 provinces, with new daily record of nearly 1,000, bringing the overall tally to more than 32,000. A senior virologist warned that the number of daily new cases could jump further after Songkran Festival. The numbers have been rising at neck breaking pace and yesterday’s numbers reached 967 new infections. The outbreak has prompted a rare reaction from the really HiSo elites of Thailand on the lack of vaccination process and the procurement of the vaccines by Thailand. Although none of the top 50 richest families in the country have openly said that they are opposed to this government, privately they have said that they are not happy with the decisions being made by the government in handling the Covid-19 situation. The government announced 967 new infections, bringing the overall tally to 32,625. Chiang Mai alone flagged a further 281 cases that were to be included in today’s national figures. Dr Sophon Iamsirithaworn, the deputy director-general of the Disease Control Department, has signalled the possible closure of more nightlife entertainment venues in 36 provinces to further reduce the risk of local spread of Covid-19, on top of those in 41 provinces. The closure of entertainment venues in 41 provinces can help reduce the spread of the outbreak by 25 per cent, Dr Sophon said, adding that his department is keeping a close watch on the situation and whether it is necessary to shut down night clubs, pubs, bars, and live music venues in other 36 provinces.
