  • 314 Trumbull Was Apparently Ill-Advised Again, Possibly By
    314 BOOK REVIEWS Trumbull was apparently ill-advised again, possibly by expatriate administrators, as seen in his claim that, , Finally, the leadership class already existing under ancient custon is being expanded in depth everywhere by the spread of education, and I have found no significant disposition among the conservative oldsters to stifle the progressive young, despite the generation gap that obtrudes in family life. (282) Most observers of Micronesia would agree that one of the saddest aspects of develop- ment and change in the U.S. administered islands is the fact that the traditional leaders were, for the most part, by-passed in both education and political development. Of all the traditional leaders of Micronesia, there are but a few who are reasonably conver- sant in English, which is the language of government. None of the traditional para- mount chiefs holds an elected office of any consequence. Since I seem to be picking at the author, I may as well advise him to avoid giving spurious etymologies of exotic words. The item he cites as ghoose(p. 135) doesn't mean "bribe" or anything else in any of the languages of Fiji. Nor does Guahan by itself mean "we have". It is simply a place name, the Chamorro version of Guam. Possibly the best feature of this book is the anecdotal and personal touches that come from Mr. Trumbull's familiarity with and love for the islands themselves. Like many a Pacific War vet, he feels for the islands in a very special way which comes through in his writing.

  • Hawker Policy in Thailand
    Legislative Council Secretariat FS12/13-14 FACT SHEET Hawker policy in Thailand 1. Background 1.1 Similar to many other Asian countries, Thailand has a long history of street vending. In Bangkok, the largest city in Thailand, street vending has provided local Thai people with cheap and convenient access to a wide range of goods and a means of making a living. According to a survey conducted by the International Labour Office1, a majority of street vendors surveyed were satisfied with their occupation because of the income earning opportunity and work autonomy.2 In recent years, street vending has also been considered as a way to nurture entrepreneurship, as well as adding to the tourist attractions of Bangkok by bringing vibrancy and vitality to the city. 1.2 In Bangkok, street vending has brought with it urban problems such as obstruction to pedestrian and vehicular traffic. It has also given rise to hygienic problem as many of street vending activities are related to the sale of cooked food along the streets. As such, the local government has designated various locations as street vending areas subject to regulatory controls such as the restrictions on the trading hours of street vendors. This fact sheet makes reference to the Bangkok city for the study of hawker policy in Thailand, covering information on the regulation and management of street vending, different forms of government-run markets, and the emergence of the new-generation street vendors. 1 International Labour Office is the permanent secretariat of the International Labour Organization. 2 See International Labour Office (2006a).

We accept no responsibility for the use or application of this information. We suggest that readers contact the specific government and military programme offices if seeking to confirm the reliability of any data. 1 MARKET OVERVIEW Broadly speaking, the global helicopter market is currently facing a two- pronged assault. The military helicopter segment has been impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures across most traditional markets, and a recent slide in global crude oil prices has impacted the demand for new civil helicopters as well as the level of activity for existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector. This situation has impacted industry OEMs significantly, many of which had been working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment. However, the medium- to long-term view of the market is promising given the presence of strong fundamentals and persistent, sustainable growth drivers. The market for military helicopters in particular is set to cross a technological threshold in the form of next-generation compound helicopters and tilt rotorcraft.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • Bangkok Street Food Variety and Its Relationship in Spatial Aspect
    Bangkok Street Food Variety and Its Relationship in Spatial Aspect Montouch Maglumtong, Navamindradhiraj University, Thailand The Asian Conference on the Social Sciences 2018 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract In Bangkok, the capital and the largest city of Thailand, street food provides local with cheap and convenient access to a variety of foods and a means of making a living. Even though, Thai foods are prepared daily in the most of every Thai households, yet, trading food has been a common economic activity since the old days. The development of street food became more functioning and part of daily consumption way of urban living, especially in the city where people spend most of the time outside their houses. Its contributions to urban life go beyond their own informal employment, as it generates demand and supply for a wide range of services provided by other informal and formal workers. This article purposes to examine the relationship between urban dining culture and food varieties in spatial planning aspect with Bangkok as an area of study. Street food business in fifty districts was investigated and analyzed into three parts: street food vendor, street food character, and street food location. The initial result shows that urban dining culture relates to street food distribution, but contrasts with the government policy, which concentrates on abolition. This will lead into policy suggestion for the importance of street food in the city. Keywords: dining culture, street food, distribution, spatial aspect iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction In Bangkok, the capital and the largest city of Thailand, street food vending provided local with cheap and convenient access to a variety of foods and a means of making a living.

  • Determinants of Eating at Local and Western Fast-Food Venues in an Urban Asian Population: a Mixed Methods Approach Nasheen Naidoo1, Rob M
    Naidoo et al. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity (2017) 14:69 DOI 10.1186/s12966-017-0515-x RESEARCH Open Access Determinants of eating at local and western fast-food venues in an urban Asian population: a mixed methods approach Nasheen Naidoo1, Rob M. van Dam2,3, Sheryl Ng2, Chuen Seng Tan2, Shiqi Chen4, Jia Yi Lim4, Mei Fen Chan4, Ling Chew4 and Salome A. Rebello2* Abstract Background: Like several Southeast Asian countries, Singapore has a complex eating-out environment and a rising eating-out prevalence. However the determinants and drivers of eating-out in urban Asian environments are poorly understood. Methods: We examined the socio-demographic characteristics of persons who frequently ate away from home in local eateries called hawker centres and Western fast-food restaurants, using data from 1647 Singaporean adults participating in the National Nutrition Survey (NNS) 2010. We also assessed the underlying drivers of eating out and evaluated if these were different for eating at local eateries compared to Western fast-food restaurants using 18 focus group discussions of women (130 women). Results: Participants reported a high eating-out frequency with 77.3% usually eating either breakfast, lunch or dinner at eateries. Main venues for eating-out included hawker centres (61.1% usually ate at least 1 of 3 daily meals at this venue) and school/workplace canteens (20.4%). A minority of participants (1.9%) reported usually eating at Western fast-food restaurants. Younger participants and those of Chinese and Malay ethnicity compared to Indians were more likely to eat at Western fast-food restaurants.

  • The Arms Industry and Increasingly Autonomous Weapons
    Slippery Slope The arms industry and increasingly autonomous weapons www.paxforpeace.nl Reprogramming War This report is part of a PAX research project on the development of lethal autonomous weapons. These weapons, which would be able to kill people without any direct human involvement, are highly controversial. Many experts warn that they would violate fundamental legal and ethical principles and would be a destabilising threat to international peace and security. In a series of four reports, PAX analyses the actors that could potentially be involved in the development of these weapons. Each report looks at a different group of actors, namely states, the tech sector, the arms industry, and universities and research institutes. The present report focuses on the arms industry. Its goal is to inform the ongoing debate with facts about current developments within the defence sector. It is the responsibility of companies to be mindful of the potential applications of certain new technologies and the possible negative effects when applied to weapon systems. They must also clearly articulate where they draw the line to ensure that humans keep control over the use of force by weapon systems.

Earls Court in April London Air Show The show was beset by the euphoria surrounding the selection of the US101 as the next helicopter for the US President. Although only a model and an unrepresentative interior mock- up represented the type, for the Europeans this was a largely unexpected eve of show bonus announcement. Last year the show review published by PAN [in April 2004] conceded that it was Bell that was the headline grabber and once again the HAI Heli-Expo could be said to be Bell’s. Unfortunately reflecting the worth of the goodies showcased last year; aspects of presentation were again lacklustre. Amid great ballyhoo last year Bell pulled the IFR Model 427i out of the hat and hoped to sell it to the masses. One year on a clearly shell-shocked Bell dropped this variant of the 427 [from a very great height] and pulled out the Model 429 – a markedly different animal but aimed at a similar market. Bell state this is the first of their MAPL [Modular Affordable Product Line].
