Chinese Temples in Bangkok Sources of Data for 19Th-Century Sino-Thai Communities
25 Chinese Temples in Bangkok Sources of Data for 19th-Century Sino-Thai Communities ChuimeiHo* 1. Introduction Modem Chinese communities in Thailand have been the subject of extensive research by social scientists and historians (e.g., Landon 1941; Skinner 1957, 1958; Coughlin 1960; Purcell 1951). Much empirical data has been collected regarding Chinese ethnic groups in 20th-century Thai society, but not nearly as much hard data has been made available for the study of the Chinese in Bangkok during the 19th century. The numerous observations by European travelers are too sketchy for serious analysis and contemporary Thai and Chinese documentary sources seem to be very rare. However, rich epigraphic data from the last two centuries survives within the Chinese community in Thailand. Much of this is still on public display inside Chinese temples and ancestral halls. Elsewhere in Southeast Asia, much Chinese epigraphic material has been compiled by historians (e.g., Chen & Tan 1970; Chen 1977; Franke & Chen 1982-87). Some I scholars have incorporated such material into broader studies of overseas Chinese culture (e.g., Salmon & Lombard 1977 for Jakarta). But in Thailand, no comprehensive survey of temple inscriptions has yet been published, apart from some of Franke's work (1976; 1991).1 In deed, researchers generally have not paid much attention to Chinese temples in Thailand. Among the few exceptions are Skinner (1957:84,138 and Coughlin (1960:94-100).2 In 1990 and 1991, the author visited twenty-eight Chinese temples3 as well as one Chinese and five Vietnamese Mahayana monasteries4 in Bangkok (Table 1: Fig.l ).5 These included all of the temples in Sampheng, Bangkok's traditional Chinatown, and several others in Thon Buri on the other side of the Chao Phraya River.

The Forgotten Heritage of the Rattanakosin Area
The Forgotten Heritage of the Rattanakosin Area Piyamas Lernapakun+ (Thailand) Abstract In order to safeguard the vanishing traditions and the history of a city, it is nec- essary to document and record the forgotten heritage. The aim of this study is to raise public awareness of the cultural significance of the Rattanakosin area including ancient wangs (mansions) and shophouses endangered by the develop- ment of urban projects and the lack of good management leading to their dete- rioration. This includes Crown Property Bureau’s assets of historical buildings on Rattanakosin Island. The research results show that heritage buildings are being demolished and replaced by modern concrete structures. The main conclusion drawn in this paper is that: If the heritage buildings continue to be replaced with present day structures, in the near future the entire history of the Rattanakosin area might be lost.

Heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generations (World Heritage Information Kit, 2008:5). The “past” is the Foundation of the “present” which leads to the growth of the “future” if nothing is left of the “past.” How can the “future” survive? (Shi- nawatra Weerapan, 2002:7).

The Crypto-Colonial Dilemmas of Rattanakosin Island
The Crypto-Colonial Dilemmas of Rattanakosin Island Michael Herzfeld It is now over a decade and a half since Marc Askew published an influential critique of the rise of heritage discourse in Bangkok (Askew 1996). In an argument that reverberates sympathetically with my own critique of modernist planning a decade later (Herzfeld 2006), he suggests that the current planning regime has chosen to ignore existing, on-the-ground social arrangements in favor of a Western- derived and locally unappealing concept of “heritage,” now officially enshrined in state discourse as moradok haeng chaat (“national heritage”). While the term is etymologically cognate with the Lao moladok, its exponents in Thailand have never succeeded in promoting its potentially affective appeal in the way that has made significant inroads in the Lao consciousness (Berliner 2010). In order to understand why the concept has so little appeal and how its implications nonetheless suffuse current urban politics in Bangkok, I propose in this brief exploration to address some key issues both from the intimate perspective of ethnographic research and through the telescopic lens of trans-national comparison. Through this typically anthropological convergence of apparently opposed viewpoints, I hope to tease out some traces of the key dynamics so long obscured by the myopic grandiloquence of formal historiography. The conceptual dilemmas and practical difficulties of promoting the idea of a national heritage in Thailand are exemplified in Rattanakosin Island, where the imposing plans envisaged for the area’s reconstruction have been mired in bureaucratic foot-dragging, inter-agency rivalry, contradictions within the legal provisions for eminent domain and expropriation, and popular resistance.

'Public' Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok
‘Public’ Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok ‘Public’ Prayer Rooms of Contemporary Bangkok Winyu Ardrugsa Faculty of Architecture and Planning, Thammasat University, Thailand [email protected] ABSTRACT his paper investigates the exclusivity of Muslim prayer rooms found distributed throughout urban T Bangkok. Although the prayer room can hardly be considered domestic, its existence is not really ‘public’ either. Increasingly, this little worship space is accommodated in some public facilities owned by state organizations and private corporations. In this paper the prayer room is examined in three interrelated scales: the geographical network, the placement of the room within a facility and the interior. The examination reveals inscribed body-place relationships which are conceived specifically to different projected images of each place and different social categorizations of Muslim users. Keywords: prayer room, public space, Muslim space, subjectivity, spatiality INTRODUCTION For devout Muslims, the prayer room increasingly becomes a part of daily life.

Chapter 1: Introduction
Chapter 1: Introduction Until recently, the canals of Bangkok accommodated many social, cultural, and commercial activities, functioning as important public places for residents of Thailand's capital city. Dating from the founding of the city in 1782, the canals in Bangkok are of cultural importance to the Thai people, having originated as a means of providing security against attack, as a source of sustenance (food and water), as the focus of religious ceremonies and celebrations such as the Loy Kratong Festival, and as a site for recreational activities such as swimming and boating activities and competitions. The banks of the canals were also used as market places and thoroughfares, and for public gatherings. The canals were used as the city's main transportation system until the street system was introduced in 1851. Consequently, many important public institutions, such as temples and markets, are located on the canals, which served as the original means of connecting key public places in the city. The canal system has also been an important structural element that has influenced the physical pattern of settlement in Bangkok, defining the limits of development at various points in times. Some of the canals still represent boundaries of municipal districts. Today, the role of the canal system in public life has been reduced. Dependence on the automobile has made the street system the primary means of transportation. Buildings now turn their backs to the canals and face the streets. Some canals have been converted to streets. The streets have also taken over the shopping or market functions that were once centered on the canals.
