  • Thailand Is Going “Green”. Visit and Explore the Country's Eco-Friendly
    Thailand is going “Green”. Visit and explore the country’s eco-friendly, attractions, services and more. Thai Tourism is going GREEN. The Tourism Authority of Thailand is asking you to ‘Enjoy Travel and Care for the Environment’. They are asking this of all parties concerned in tourism - you the tourists, hotels, attractions, transportation and tour agents. Reducing our carbon footprint, reducing pollution and maintaining and improving our environment are goals all of us should share. Message from the Governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand Dear Readers, Every year, the hotel business is a part of the service sector which plays an important role in generating a large amount of income for Thailand. However, at present, while global warming results in climate change and there is an increase in severe disasters, international tourists have become more concerned about the significance of the global warming effects. Therefore, entrepreneurs of hotels and other forms of accommodation, besides focusing on the business benefits, have paid more attention on the campaign for decreasing the effects of global warming and protecting the environment. This in turn tends to be the first alternatives for tourists who would like to visit Thailand. The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is aware of the effects of global warming, and has been supporting the supporting the operation of green hotels around the country which can provide visitors with a memorable impression and satisfy their needs. In this regard, TAT, in cooperation with the Green Leaf foundation and Red Mango Company Limited, has published the guidebook, Green Hotels & Resorts Thailand, with the hope that this would be beneficial for all stakeholders in the tourism industry, visitors, and the interested public.

  • Lao War Captives at Bangkok in the Nineteenth Century
    UNDER DURESS: LAO WAR CAPTIVES AT BANGKOK IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Edward Van Roy Abstract Over the course of the Thonburi period and the first five reigns of the Bangkok era, large numbers of Lao war captives were transported to Siam. While most of those prisoners were settled as slaves in the outlying provinces, the core of the captive Lao aristocracy along with their retinues of nobles and craftsmen were settled in Bangkok. This article examines the history of seven of the Lao settlements in Bangkok: first, the Vientiane royal compound at Bang Yi-khan and the Lao Phuan and Champasak communities at Bang Khun Phrom and Thewet, both upstream of the walled city of Bangkok; second, the Lao commoner communities at Bang Sai Kai and Ban Kruai downstream from the city; and third, Ban Lao Phuan, Ban Kraba, and Ban Ti Thong within the city. Clarification of the history of those communities provides a number of insights into the changing spatial structure and social organization of nineteenth-century Bangkok. Love and loathing Relations between Siam and the Lao states of the Mekong watershed soured during the Thonburi period (1767–1782). Whether that was primarily due to the dynamics of Burmese influence in the Lao country, the newly-found might and exuberant expansionism of the Thonburi regime, or personal animosities between Thonburi’s King Taksin and King Si Bunyasan of Vientiane remains a moot point. What is beyond dispute, however, is the decline in power of the Lao states and their reduced capacity to withstand pressure from their neighbors following the 1707 fragmentation of the kingdom of Lan Chang into the rival states of Luang Prabang, Vientiane, and Champasak.
