A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand
Asian Culture and History; Vol. 6, No. 2; 2014 ISSN 1916-9655 E-ISSN 1916-9663 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand Phra Thanuthat Nasing1, Chamnan Rodhetbhai1 & Ying Keeratiburana1 1 The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province, Thailand Correspondence: Phra Thanuthat Nasing, The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province 44150, Thailand. E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 20, 2014 Accepted: June 12, 2014 Online Published: June 26, 2014 doi:10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 Abstract This qualitative investigation aims to identify problems with cultural tourism in nine Thai temples and develop a model for improved tourism management. Data was collected by document research, observation, interview and focus group discussion. Results show that temples suffer from a lack of maintenance, poor service, inadequate tourist facilities, minimal community participation and inefficient public relations. A management model to combat these problems was designed by parties from each temple at a workshop. The model provides an eight-part strategy to increase the tourism potential of temples in Bangkok: temple site, safety, conveniences, attractions, services, public relations, cultural tourism and management. Keywords: management, cultural tourism, temples, Thailand, development 1. Introduction When Chao Phraya Chakri deposed King Taksin of the Thonburi Kingdom in 1982, he relocated the Siamese capital city to Bangkok and revived society under the name of his new Rattanakosin Kingdom (Prathepweti, 1995). Although royal monasteries had been commissioned much earlier in Thai history, there was a particular interest in their restoration during the reign of the Rattanakosin monarchs. -

Tsunami Project Update
ISB NETWORK NEWS Volume 47 April 2006 HM King Bhumiphol Adulyadej By Mom Bongkojpriya (Betty) Yugala ([email protected]) On the second day after my arrival in Thailand, back in April 1966, I was taken to Hua Hin to be presented to His Majesty as a new member of the royal family. My husband’s aunt had prepared the traditional flowers and incense that I had to present to His Majesty as a gesture of loyalty, and I was prepped on the protocol. Although so nervous that I hardly could take it all in, I remember the scene at Klaikangwol (“Far From Worries”) Palace, very vividly. Feeling very close to worry and very nervous at the time, I thought the palace was inaccurately named. We all prostrated ourselves in front of him, and with my relatives’ help, I handed the traditional items to HM, along with a few albums of Jazz music that I had purchased back in the States, and had prepared for the occasion. Looking intently at me, he asked my husband, in Thai, of course, whether I could speak the language. But, being able to at least understand what was being said, I blurted, “Not yet, Your Majesty”. He smiled, laughed and commented that I would learn fast. But I wondered, at first, whether he had really accepted me, because in my youth and ignorance I felt uncomfortable when he made it a point not to speak to me in English, one of the languages he speaks fluently. It took me a long time to realize that by speaking to me only in Thai, he was showing his acceptance of me as a new member of the family. -

Keeping It Alive: Mapping Bangkok’s Diverse Living Culture Bussakorn Binson+ Pattara Komkam++ Pornprapit Phaosavadi+++ and Kumkom Pornprasit++++ (Thailand) Abstract This research project maps Bangkok’s living local culture sites while exploring, compiling and analyzing the relevant data from all 50 districts. This is an overview article of the 2011 qualitative !eld research by the Urban Research Plaza and the Thai Music and Culture Research Unit of Chulalongkorn University to be published in book form under the title Living Local Cultural Sites of Bangkok in 2012. The complete data set will be transformed into a website fortifying Bangkok’s cultural tourism to remedy its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. The !ve areas of cultural activity include the performing arts, rites, sports and recreation, craftsmanship, and the domestic arts. It was discovered that these living local cultural sites mirror the heterogeneity of its residents with their diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. There are local culture clusters of Laotians, Khmers, Mon, Chinese, Islam, Brahman-Hinduism, and Sikhs as well as Westerners. It was also found that the respective culture owners are devoted to preserve their multi-generational heritage. The natural beauty of these cultural sites remains clearly evident and vibrant, even though there remain dif!culties hampering their retention. The mapping of these sites are discussed as well as the issues surrounding those cultural sites that are in danger of extinction due to the absence of successors and other supportive factors necessary for their sustainability.
