  • Tourism Education at the Tertiary Level and Competitive Advantage A
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by AMH International (E-Journals) Journal of Education and Vocational Research Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 26-35, Apr 2011 Tourism Education at the Tertiary Level and Competitive Advantage: A Comparison between Thailand and Malaysia Thavorn Thitthongkam, John Walsh* School of Management, Shinawatra University, Thailand *[email protected] Abstract: Language plays an imperative role in business as a means and a source of power. It is particularly important in the tourism industry when international customers may be unable to communicate directly with service providers in the receiving country, and this has a direct effect on the level of satisfaction that they enjoy during their experience. To address this issue, countries attempt to various degrees to manage their labour markets so as to produce a number of graduates from secondary and tertiary level educational institutions commensurate with the demand from the sector. However, this is quite a young industry at the global level, and it is not clear to what extent the number and quality of such graduates with international language ability will be required. This paper studies the comparative extent of such education at the tertiary level of individuals in both Thailand and Malaysia. It aims to compare the number and variety of people being trained in the tourism and hospitality industry and the extent to which languages are being taught. Results show that there is something of a disconnection between the languages provided and the languages that tourists desire in terms of their mother tongue.

WU is located in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, some 800 kms South of Bangkok. It is close to one of the most famous tourist attractions in Thailand, the Island of Samui in Surat Thani. Nakhon Si Thammarat is about one-hour flight from Bangkok. On 29th March 2018, WU celebrates the 26th anniversary of its foundation. Understandably, it has had ups and downs over those years. But all in all, WU has been able to maintain its greatest strengths in terms of quality staff, world class research, community engagement, and employability for graduates. Its strength in the area of Health Sciences is second to none in Thailand. The School of Medicine will be expanded even further when the 750-bed Hospital Center is completed at the end of 2019. Needless to say, WU needs a lot of changes to keep up with the fast-changing world. Some changes here may have to be even quite drastic. It is a big challenge for me, but I am excited about new opportunities here. It will be very different from my previous Professorship and Presidency at the National Institute of Development Administration (NIDA) in Bangkok.

  • Thai Kingship During the Ayutthaya Period : a Note on Its Divine Aspects Concerning Indra*
    Thai Kingship during the Ayutthaya Period : A Note on Its Divine Aspects Concerning Indra* Woraporn Poopongpan Abstract This article is an initial attempt to highlight the divine aspects of Thai kingship during the Ayutthaya period, the interesting characteristic of which was an association of the king’s divinity with the Buddhist and Brahman god, Indra. Thai concept of the king’s divinity was identified closely with many Brahman gods such as Narayana, Rama or Siva (Isuan) but the divine aspects concerning Indra had a special place in Thai intellectual thinking as attested by ceremonies associated with the kingship recorded in Palatine Law and other sources. Thai kingship associated with Indra was reflected in the following elements: 1. The Royal ceremonies 2. The names of Indra’s residences 3.
