  • Study Report on Situation of Home-Based Workers' Groups In
    Study Report on Situation of Home-based Workers’ Groups in Urban Areas and Target Groups under the Inclusive Urban Planning Project Submitted to Homenet South Asia Compiled by Foundation for Labour and Employment Promotion October 2010 Study Report on Home-based Workers’ Groups in Urban Areas October 2010 1 1. Background Home-based workers (HBWs)1 are generally poor, receiving low wages or income and working long hours, thus earning inadequate income to support their household expenses. These workers live in slum communities2 scattered in urban or suburban areas. As a result, it is difficult for them to organize. Their presence is virtually non-existent, not known or socially recognized, and not economically valued as a group of workers that contribute to the urban and national economy. Thus these HBWs have no participatory role in their local or community development planning. The Inclusive Urban Planning (IUP) Project is developed to build up and strengthen the capacity of HBW’s groups by supporting their organization in the form of membership- based organizations (MBOs)3. MBOs will act as representatives of the HBWs in presenting their problems and needs to government agencies so that these workers will be given a chance to participate in the urban planning process, which is suitable for their needs. This five-year Project (2009-2013) is carried out by Homenet Thailand and its collaborating non-governmental organizations. Homenet Thailand (HNT) was established in 1992 and registered as the Foundation for Labor and Employment Promotion in 2003. The Project’s major operation areas are Bangkok, Chiang Rai and Khon Kaen provinces.

  • Tourism Education at the Tertiary Level and Competitive Advantage A
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by AMH International (E-Journals) Journal of Education and Vocational Research Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 26-35, Apr 2011 Tourism Education at the Tertiary Level and Competitive Advantage: A Comparison between Thailand and Malaysia Thavorn Thitthongkam, John Walsh* School of Management, Shinawatra University, Thailand *[email protected] Abstract: Language plays an imperative role in business as a means and a source of power. It is particularly important in the tourism industry when international customers may be unable to communicate directly with service providers in the receiving country, and this has a direct effect on the level of satisfaction that they enjoy during their experience. To address this issue, countries attempt to various degrees to manage their labour markets so as to produce a number of graduates from secondary and tertiary level educational institutions commensurate with the demand from the sector. However, this is quite a young industry at the global level, and it is not clear to what extent the number and quality of such graduates with international language ability will be required. This paper studies the comparative extent of such education at the tertiary level of individuals in both Thailand and Malaysia. It aims to compare the number and variety of people being trained in the tourism and hospitality industry and the extent to which languages are being taught. Results show that there is something of a disconnection between the languages provided and the languages that tourists desire in terms of their mother tongue.

Over the last decade, globalization and the integration of South-east Asian nations into ASEAN Community has accelerated international mobilization, cross- regional collaboration, as well as intercultural exchanges within various organizations especially educational institutions. Nowadays, several universities in Thailand increasingly offer international study and research programs to meet up this regional trend with international standard. Therefore, staff and faculties from diverse cultures are employed to fulfil such an international standard requirement.

Spatial density measures are an important tool for future healthcare planning, particularly in Northeast Thailand where the ageing population has rapidly increased for a decade. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship of geographic and elderly population density in Chiang Yuen district, Mahasarakham province, to ascertain suitable areas for elderly healthcare centres. The data of the elderly located in the villages were collected by the Global Position System (GPS) using Kernel density method to employ the analysis of population density, and GIS for healthcare mapping, and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) as multiple criteria decision-making tools. Factors were determined by using the overlay analysis method, where social, physical and economic factors were variables of interest that were used for the analysis of suitable areas for Elderly Healthcare Centres. The results revealed that the spatial density of the elderly population could be divided into four levels: Low density for the agriculture areas, medium density for agricultural areas including small villages.
