  • The White Hmong of Northern Thailand
    doi: 10.14456/jms.2019.3 Contesting Memories in the Hmong Thai Community: A Study of the “Red Meo” at Doi Yao-Phamon in Northern Thailand Urai Yangcheepsutjarit 80, Moo 8, Bokeo, Samoeng, Chiang Mai 50250, Thailand Email: [email protected] Received: August 22, 2018 Revised: October 19, 2018 Accepted: December 28, 2018 Abstract The body of literature on leftist movements in Thailand contains only limited information about the Hmong as an active political group in the Communist Party of Thailand (CPT) from the 1960s to the 1980s. Moreover, since the end of the Cold War, there has been no study that explores the so-called “Red Meo” despite the fact that the Thai government has put a great effort into development programs for this ethnic group. The present study focuses on the more recent “Red Meo” response of constructing a counter-memorial in honor of their own people who sacrificed their lives at the former battlefield, Doi Yao-Phamon, in northern Thailand. Data were collected primarily through ethnographic fieldwork from 2013 to 2015 along with secondary sources. The “Red Meo” are reinterpreting their involvement with the CPT as stemming from majority Thai and state oppression, hence, seeing their own struggle as a heroic fight against social injustice. This paper also examines how Doi Yao-Phamon has become a landscape of contested memories between the “Red Meo” and government officials. The paper argues that the emergence of a contested memory in this Hmong community is a form of soft fighting between the dominant majority Thai as presented by the Thai government and a dominated minority, the Hmong.

    MFU Connexion, 8(1) || page 61 Chiang Rai as a Border Province under the Nation State’s Design of Border Space* Pollavat Prapattong1 Received Oct 11, 2018 Revised Dec 16, 2018 Accepted Dec 26, 2018 Abstract This article was motivated by the debate on whether the present-day “Chiang Rai” is the same “Chiang Rai” that has existed since its founding in 1262 C.E. This study was based on the hypothesis that Chiang Rai, officially called “Chiang Rai province,” at present becomes a border area because of the politically established border. This study adopted a historical approach, namely, a historically reconstructed landscape of Chiang Rai. It was found out that Chiang Rai was brought up from being the border area redesigning. The study was examined the development of the province’s basic historical structure in 4 stages as followed. Stage 1: Redesigning of Traditional State, Chiang Rai before the new Nation State taking place. Stage 2: Redesigning of Civilization, Chiang Rai under the new Nation State (the decade of 1880-1950). State 3: Redesigning of Modern Thai People, Chiang Rai and being modern Thai society redesigning (the decade of 1 School of Liberal Arts, Mae Fah Luang University, Chiang Rai, Thailand, e-mail: [email protected] * This article is summary of the research “Muang Chiang Rai under the Boundary Line Authority.” It was funded by The Thailand Research Fund (TRF) and Mae Fah Luang University.

  • Pah Tung & Huay Hin Fon Hot Springs (Mae Chan District) a Small
    Brief of North Thai Geysers, Hot Springs, & Thermal Vents by O P Armstrong, (P.E.) w/ pictures and maps: 2013 ________________________________________________________________________________________ There are many locations around the north Thailand and perhaps over 100 sites1,2,3 in Thailand and it’s islands where you can see hot springs. The geysers and warm pools are a popular attraction. There are many hot springs scattered about Northern Thailand along with waterfalls close to these hot springs. Natural hot springs can be loaded with health-giving minerals that may offer benefits to the body, not to mention the relaxing experience. The heat itself is said to release mental stress, relieve muscle aches and backache, help skin problems, and promote well being in general. There are also some areas in South of Thailand where hot springs emerge from the earth. It is especially the case around the Chiang Rai/Mai region. Some have been developed as attractions and are thus a bit touristy, like Sankampaeng hot springs. Still others are beautifully set amid stunning scenery with hardly anyone around, Fang & Lana-Olsen. Most of my maps & pic’s are linked off page for better viewing. Click the links to see the picture collection. Lana Olsen hot spring is a well run facility close to Mae Suei on Hwy 109 to Fang. The facilities at Lana Olsen are superb. I rate L-O at 5 stars due to close proximity and the well attended details. A view of these pic’s is recommended.

  • Teak Logging in a Trans-Boundary Watershed: an Historical Case Study of the Ing River Basin in Northern Thailand
    TEAK LOGGING IN A TRANS-BOUNDARY WATERSHED: AN HISTORICAL CASE STUDY OF THE ING RIVER BASIN IN NORTHERN THAILAND Suphawat Laohachaiboon and Shinya Takeda Abstract This paper explores the circumstances of teak logging from 1909 to 1924 around the Ing River, in the Mekong watershed. Teak logging in the Ing forests was not a simple phenomenon occurring in a geopolitical vacuum. First, teak logging practices were made possible by the French control of French Indochina, including part of the right bank of the Mekong River, which Siam had ceded to France in 1904. Second, the actual logging operations in this region depended upon the geographical location of the Mekong River. That is, teak logs from the Ing forests could only be transported via the river, which crosses the borders of Siam and French Indochina. Introduction This paper examines the circumstances of teak logging from 1909 to 1924 around the Ing River, a tributary of the Mekong River, to understand the conditions that restricted and facilitated the logging operations in the trans-boundary area. The plentiful supplies of teak (Tectona grandis) in Southeast Asian countries such as Burma, Indonesia, and Thailand were a magnet for European colonists (Hurst 1990, 245; Peluso et al. 1995, 196). Patterns of teak logging in these countries were influenced to a large extent by German and British scientific forestry, which called for all forest areas to be mapped, enumerated, demarcated, and preserved (Vandergeest 1996, 160-1). However, teak logging in Thailand was exceptional, in that it was practiced not only in the Chao Phraya, the domestic watershed, but also in the watersheds of the Mekong and the Salween, the so-called “international rivers” of today (Figure 1).

  • Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai
    DigitalResources Electronic Survey Report 2013-009 ® Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons SIL International® 2013 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2013-009, April 2013 ©2013 Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, Jennifer Simmons, and SIL International® All rights reserved Abstract This paper presents the results of a sociolinguistic survey of the Northern Thai varieties spoken in six provinces of Northern Thailand. The purpose of this survey was to determine whether the variety of Northern Thai currently being used for literature development will be adequate for Northern Thai speakers in all of these six provinces, and if not, which varieties should be selected for further development. The researchers conducted brief sociolinguistic questionnaires and modified recorded text tests to investigate sociolinguistic attitudes. The data for this survey was collected in 12 randomly selected sub-districts in 6 provinces of Northern Thailand between December 2011 and February 2012. ii Acknowledgments This research was conducted under the auspices of Payap University Linguistics Institute, Chiang Mai, Thailand. The research team consisted of Jennifer Herington, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons, with assistance from Margaret Potter and Elizabeth Pisaniello. The report was consultant checked by Margaret Potter. The research team would like to thank the Northern Thai language development team—Ajaan Manop Panyo, Saisunee Nusak, and Pat Lew—for their aid in planning the survey and collecting stories for testing. The team would also like to acknowledge the hospitality and willing participation of the Northern Thai community.
