  • Thai Literature at the Crossroads of Modernity: Advancing a Critique of Neo-Liberal
    Thai Literature at the Crossroads of Modernity: Advancing a Critique of Neo-liberal Development though the Writings of Khamsing Srinawk and Chart Korbjitti A thesis presented to the faculty of the Center for International Studies of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Matthew J. Ozea August 2008 2 This thesis titled Thai Literature at the Crossroads of Modernity: Advancing a Critique of Neo-liberal Development through the Writings of Khamsing Srinawk and Chart Korbjitti by MATTHEW J. OZEA has been approved for the Center for International Studies by Richard B. McGinn Associate Professor Emeritus of Linguistics Gene Ammarell Director, Southeast Asian Studies Daniel Weiner Executive Director, Center for International Studies 3 ABSTRACT OZEA, MATTHEW J., M.A., August 2008, Southeast Asian Studies Thai Literature at the Crossroads of Modernity: Advancing a Critique of Neo-liberal Development through the Writings of Khamsing Srinawk and Chart Korbjitti (132 pp.) Director of Thesis: Richard B. McGinn Throughout its modern history, Thailand has experienced incredible change, resulting in a marked tension between traditional values and those of the “modern” world. During this turbulent process of modernization, new social groups emerged to challenge both the status quo and military regimes. This thesis analyzes how two noted literary figures from these socially conscious groups, Khamsing Srinawk and Chart Korbjitti, critique their rapidly changing society, and how their works underscore a sense of increasing futility and powerlessness as the old world of custom and extended families comes into contact with the new world of materialism and competitive individualism. The writings of Khamsing and Chart function on two distinct yet interrelated levels.

I’m sure many of the points that I will cover will already be familiar to you. However, I hope this can contribute something to tourism in Indonesia.The current plan of building tourism within Indonesia to 20 million visitors a year by 2019 is an ambitious target. A rough calculation shows that annual growth rates should average around 16% per year [source]. Over the last two years, the numbers of international tourists in Indonesia has grown just over 8% each year (8-9 million by last two years). So although the figure of 16% growth is not impossible it is of course a very ambitious target. of safety precautions, including most visited and photographed Pandawa Beach wearing the appropriate clothing temple in Bali; however, it has Pandawa beach is locally known as During a recent trip to Bali I talked a lot with people What I preferred to and using a guide wherever all the authenticity of a stage ‘Pantai Pandawa’ based on the epic involved in the tourism industry about this goal and possible.

  • Thai Adaptations of the Javanese Panji in Cosmopolitan Ayutthaya
    Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 2, September 2011 Thai Adaptations of the Javanese Panji in Cosmopolitan Ayutthaya Christopher Joll* and Srawut Aree** This article considers the curious case study of Thai literary networks in the late Ayutthaya, the networks’ adoption and adaptations of the Javanese Panji epic, and what these innovations reveal about the form of cosmopolitanism that existed until the late Bangkok period. While windows into what we refer to as Siamese cosmo­ politanism have been reconstructed by historians in accounts of Persian, Portu­ guese, Dutch, French, Chinese, and Japanese mercantile networks, our treatment of this important topic expands the units of analysis to include Thai literary net­ works. Davisakd Puaksom’s excellent doctoral dissertation piqued our interest in Panji’s Siamese adoptions and adaptations, but we set ourselves the task of explor­ ing the utility of Ronit Ricci’s Islam Translated, which analyzes Tamil, Javanese, and Malay sources for Thai studies. We pursue a comparative approach to Southeast Asian historiography in ways that increase the dialogue between Thai studies specialists and members of the Malay Studies Guild. Having described the most important Thai version of this Javanese epic produced by Siamese literary networks from the Ayutthaya through to the late Bangkok period, we consider the principal historical personalities and processes that brought Panji to cosmopolitan Ayutthaya. After providing details about the presence of Javanese individuals and influences in both Ayutthaya and Patani, we introduce insights provided by literary scholars and historians concerning the notoriously ambiguous terms “Java/Jawah/Javanese” and “Malay/Melayu.” These form the foundation for putting forward arguments about Ayutthaya having fostered forms of cosmopolitanism resembling the fluid linguistic and cultural milieu that flourished in other Southeast Asian port polities.

  • Chapter Two: Future Perspective of Bangkok
    The Study for Urban Redevelopment Plan and Case Study in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area in the Kingdom of Thailand Final Report CHAPTER TWO: FUTURE PERSPECTIVE OF BANGKOK 2.1 GENERAL/OVERVIEW Being the capital city of Thailand, the future of Bangkok is naturally deeply concerned with national interest. National level plans therefore, devote several pages on the future of the city, though many of them do not mention in detail. The Ninth National Economic and Social Development Plan (Ninth Plan) has been compiled this year, and is in effect for five years from October 2001. Various national and local governments have also formulated and started implementing their plans following the same span of time with the Ninth Plan. After the establishment of the current constitution in 1997, and consequent promulgation of the Decentralization Act, all the government plans have been formulated under the same direction: seeking the way of decentralization and promotion of peoples’ participation. In fact, having the basic concept of creating an efficient society, the Ninth Plan basically follows the policies established in the Eighth Plan. According to the National Economic and Social Development Board (NESDB), in the formulation of the Ninth Plan, efforts are made to provide a concrete path to achieve the targets in the Eighth Plan. In the following sections, existing major spatial plans and large-scale projects are reviewed, as they may have a considerable influence on the future structure of the city. 2.2 EXISTING SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT POLICIES 2.2.1 Metropolitan Regional Structure Plan The recent national socioeconomic development plans have increasingly devoted their pages to the spatial development issues.
