Seminar on Rumen Ecology Seminar on Rumen Ecology Date 28 – 29 November 2013 Venue Lecture 2, Sirindhorn Science Home, Thailand Science Park, Pathum Thani, Thailand Organized by National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) Introduction Understanding ecology of the rumen is distinctly important for feeding management of domestic ruminants. Thai farmers raise several species of ruminants ranging from sheep to milking buffaloes and dairy cows. Obviously, these animals play an important role to the socio‐economic of the country however, only few basic researches that aim to better understanding of rumen ecology and lead to the manipulation of bacterial populations to enhance feed efficiencies were carried out in Thailand. This may due to the complexities of ruminants’ digestive tract as well as the interactions between animals and microbes, thus significant researches in rumen ecology that could lead to guide line(s) for ruminant feeding in Thailand were not well documented. This seminar aims to be a venue to share knowledge and experiences amongst scientists working in the fields of animal production, ruminant nutrition and microbiology. Scientific discussions in a friendly atmosphere may lead to integration of various scientific disciplines for collaborative researches that would benefit to the farmers, industries relate to ruminant production and the countries in general. Aims 1. To enable the Thai participants to explore the updated information on ecology of the rumen 2.

Nicholls, Ph.D. January, 2001 216 (Graduate Major) (Research Advisor) (Month/Year) (No. of Pages) American Psychological Association (APA) Publication Manual (Name of Style Manual Used in this study) Sustainable ecotourism is often considered to be effective for supporting the local communities’ economy and promoting the conservation of protected areas in developing countries. By establishing economic benefits for impoverished villagers or their communities, sustainable ecotourism is utilized to encourage local guardianship of natural resources. To assess sustainable ecotourism’s impact on the revenue of local residents in the Village of Khiriwong and the Khao Luang National Park, and its effects on the environmental preservation of the Khao Luang National Park in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thailand, the researcher randomly conducted surveys of the visitors’ attitudes about rewarding experiences during their village and park visits. Biologists and Ecologists were interviewed about sustainable ecotourism’s role in supporting environmental preservation in the village and national park.

    Chiang Mai Lampang Lamphun Mae Hong Son Contents Chiang Mai 8 Lampang 26 Lamphun 34 Mae Hong Son 40 View Point in Mae Hong Son Located some 00 km. from Bangkok, Chiang Mai is the principal city of northern Thailand and capital of the province of the same name. Popularly known as “The Rose of the North” and with an en- chanting location on the banks of the Ping River, the city and its surroundings are blessed with stunning natural beauty and a uniquely indigenous cultural identity. Founded in 12 by King Mengrai as the capital of the Lanna Kingdom, Chiang Mai has had a long and mostly independent history, which has to a large extent preserved a most distinctive culture. This is witnessed both in the daily lives of the people, who maintain their own dialect, customs and cuisine, and in a host of ancient temples, fascinating for their northern Thai architectural Styles and rich decorative details. Chiang Mai also continues its renowned tradition as a handicraft centre, producing items in silk, wood, silver, ceramics and more, which make the city the country’s top shopping destination for arts and crafts. Beyond the city, Chiang Mai province spreads over an area of 20,000 sq. km. offering some of the most picturesque scenery in the whole Kingdom. The fertile Ping River Valley, a patchwork of paddy fields, is surrounded by rolling hills and the province as a whole is one of forested mountains (including Thailand’s highest peak, Doi Inthanon), jungles and rivers. Here is the ideal terrain for adventure travel by trekking on elephant back, river rafting or four-wheel drive safaris in a natural wonderland.

  • Study Material 2
    Now we are at the second module of the Thailand E-Learning Program. This module explains about the popular destinations which include Bangkok, Kanchanaburi, Hua Hin, Pattaya, Rayong and Trat. This will help you provide with detailed information about distance and transportation, where to go, things to do, new updates and suggested itinerary ideas, so your customers will be fully prepared and most satisfied. Course Process Part 1 Part 4 Bangkok Pattaya Part 2 Part 5 Kanchanaburi Rayong Part 3 Part 6 Hua Hin Trat ( Koh Chang ) BANGKOK Bangkok (Krungthep) which means “The City of Angels”, is known as the most vibrant city in South East Asia. It is ranked as No. 1 City of the World according to MasterCard’s latest Global Destination cities Survey. Bangkok welcomes more visitors than any other city in the world and it doesn’t take long to realise why this is a city of extremes with action on every corner: Marvel at the gleaming temples, catch a tuktuk along the bustling Chinatown or take a longtail boat through floating markets. Food is another Bangkok highlight with local dishes served at humble street stalls to haute cuisine at romantic rooftop restaurants. Luxury malls compete with a sea of boutiques and markets where you can treat yourself without over spending. Extravagant five-star hotels and surprisingly cheap but good hotels welcome you with the same famed Thai hospitality. And visit to Bangkok would not be complete without a glimpse of its famous nightlife – from cabarets to exotic nightlife districts, Bangkok never ceases to amaze.

Established in 1934, the university was originally named “The University of Moral Science and Politics”, offering academic programs in law and politics. The history of political development in Thailand can be understood from the signiicant role that Thammasat University and its students have played from the beginning until now. On many occasions, mass demonstra- tions on Thammasat’s main campus at Tha Prachan triggered events that eventually led to landmark achievements in the progress of democracy in Thailand.

  • 339 Chapter Six Three Royal Wats Through the Turmoil
    CHAPTER SIX THREE ROYAL WATS THROUGH THE TURMOIL OF NATIONALIST GOVERNMENTS AND DICTATOR REGIMES (1910-1957) Introduction In the previous chapter, we saw how the royal wats lost their sources of direct state support, resulting in their dependence on rent revenues derived from their donated land and their abbots became responsible for their physical condition. Real estate properties of wats became the key for their survival, and the royal government also supported them to be independent entities in the market economy. In this chapter, we will see the increasing gap between the government and the Buddhist monastic order. This was especially the case after King Vajiravudh appointed his uncle and preceptor, Prince Wachirayan as the Supreme Patriarch, whose control of monastic affairs included urging wats to manage and invest in their land properties. Moreover, he also developed strategies to increase the Buddhist religious central assets, with the aim of making the Buddhist monastic order more independent from the state. He also created primary schools and Buddhist standard texts and promoted monastic practices which supported the unity of the nation in keeping with King Vajiravudh’s ultra-nationalist ideology. In this reign, the wats and monks were separated from the management of public education. Moreover, the king did not support any new construction or preservation of the royal wats as previous rulers had in the past. Therefore, royal wats lost their prominent role in society and state affairs, but at the same time they gained significant financial stability in terms of their private investment. After the bloodless revolution in 1932, King Prachathipok (Rama VII) became a constitutional monarch and the People’s Party comprised of lower ranking officials took control of the kingdom.
