Thammasat’s Rangsit campus evacuating flood ‘refugees’ 1 จาก 1 Thammasat’s Rangsit campus evacuating flood ‘refugees’ วันจันทร์ ที 24 ต.ค. 2554 Photo PATHUM THANI, Oct 24 - Thammasat University’s Rangsit Campus in province adjacent to Bangkok will evacuate about 1,000 flood victims of the approximately 3,000 persons currently sheltering there, moving them to Rajamangala National Stadium in eastern Bangkok's Bang Kapi district after the campus was hit by even deeper floodwater since Sunday, according to Vice Rector Kampol Ruchiwit. Dr Kampol said another 300 of flood victims wished to return home to Ayutthaya, while the rest of the victims will be staying at the university for another night. The evacuation is being assisted by Bangkok Mass Transit Authority (BMTA) which is providing buses. The rector said that floodwaters are 1.5 metres deep at the university entrance where floodwater has poured into the ground floor of the gymnasium, a temporary shelter for flood victims who had earlier evacuated their homes in Ayutthaya. The deeper water has interrupted the electrical system, halting the air conditioning, resulting in inconvenient living conditions, but generators are now being used to provide basic electrical power. The rector said although Rajamangala National Stadium, a facility of the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT), is itself at risk of floods, it should be safe enough, for it is located near a huge water tunnel. If the shelter is not sufficient for flood 'refugees', they can evacuate further to Vajiravudh International Scout Camp in Chon Buri, southeast of Bangkok. Sports Authority Governor Kanokpan Jullakasem said Rajamangala Stadium has prepared with about 7,000 sets of bedding for evacuees. Over 1,000 volunteers are already registered at Rajamangala Stadium to help with the evacuation and care for flood victims. Meanwhile, nearby Thammasat University Hospital has evacuated an unspecified number of patients to hospitals in Saraburi, Nakhon Ratchasima, Nakhon Nayok and Chon Buri. Dr Kampol said that floodwaters have made an island of the Rangsit campus, and that transportation difficulties. Only high-wheeled vehicles can commute on the Don Mueang Tollway in order to travel the 10km to reach the university's entrance. Thammasat remains open as a shelter, but with a much reduced population. Spreading floodwaters make it difficult to locate alternative sites for taking shelter.

'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. This paper’s investigation In nations neighboring Thailand, such as Malaysia is specifically organized around the accommodations and Indonesia, Muslims are in the majority.

It is found in public facilities. When it is time for prayer, specifically employed to problematize prayer rooms they think about the room before the mosque. Its in ‘public’ places.

LAMPIRAN Berita SKH KOMPAS RABU, 14
LAMPIRAN Berita SKH KOMPAS RABU, 14 DESEMBER 2016 “Garuda” Buru Gelar Timnas Indonesia Tidak Gentar dengan Nama Besar Thailand BOGOR, KOMPAS – Tim nasional Indonesia tidak boleh gegabah saat melawan Thailand di laga pertama final Piala AFF Suzuki 2016, Rabu (14/12) pukul 19.00, di Stadion Pakansari, Bogor. Sedikit kesalahan bisa memupus impian Indonesia meraih gelar juara untuk pertama kali di turnamen ini. “Thailand tim terkuat saat ini di Asia Tenggara. Di penyisihan, kami kalah. Namun, kami punya peluang jika yakin dan bermain dengan disiplin,” kata pelatih Indonesia, Alfred Riedl, dalam jumpa pers pralaga di Aston Sentul, Selasa (13/12). Di laga pertama penyisihan Grup A. Thailand menaklukkan Indonesia dengan skor 4-2. Selanjutnya, skuad “Gajah Perang” menang 1-0 atas Singapura dan Filipina. Di semifinal, tim asuhan Kiatisuk Senamuang menang telak 2-0 dan 4-0 atas Myanmar. Dilihat dari perjalanan Thailand, rasanya memang Indonesia yang pantas menjadi lawan di final. Cuma skuad “Garuda” yang mampu menjebol gawang Thailand, yakni oleh Boaz Solossa dan Lerby Eliandry. “Sebelum turnamen, saya pernah mengatakan, jangan pernah anggap enteng Indonesia. Dan kini terbukti, Indonesia lawan kami di final,” kata Kiatisuk yang dijuluki Zico dari ASEAN itu. perjalanan Indonesia, dalam penilaian Kiatisuk, luar biasa dan meningkat. Indonesia lolos ke semifinal sebagai runner-up Grup A setelah kalah 2-4 dari Thailand, seri 2-2 dengan Filipina, dan menang 2-1 atas Singapura. Di semifinal, Indonesia menang 2-1 atas Vietnam dan seri 2-2 di laga kedua. “Walaupun tidak menang clean sheet, Indonesia tetap berbahaya dan selalu mencetak dua gol,” katanya. Untuk menghadapi Indonesia, Kiatisuk tampaknya akan kembali memakai kekuatan yang sama dengan saat menang 4-0 atas Myanmar.
