As Chairman of the Board of Trustees, I am privileged to be associ- ated with this noble endeavor, and to witness the empowerment of young people that takes place at the AIT through first-class scholar- ship and learning. This has been a year when further strides were taken to position the Institute towards possibilities and opportunities that would enable its historical mission to progress to the future. As you read this report, you will see that it was another year when AIT scored highly in teach- ing, research, capacity building and outreach, across the breadth of our extensive networks. Conversely, however, 2011 will also be remembered for an historical low that tested the Insti- tute’s resolve and shook it to its very core. While certainly destructive to infrastructure, the devastating flood that submerged our campus nevertheless failed to wash away the AIT Com- munity’s most precious commodity – its spirit of international solidarity and goodwill. The AIT’s journey forward passed a significant historical signpost this year, when a new Charter was signed by twelve countries and one international organization. By moving towards becom- ing a fully fledged intergovernmental organization, a new era dawns for this noble institute situated in Thailand. H.E. Dr. Tej Bunnag Chairman of the Board of Trustees Asian Institute of Technology 4 AIT ANNUAL REPORT 2011 AIT Leadership PRESIDENT'SPRESIDENT'S MESSAGEMESSAGE the great universities and institutes of higher AMONGlearning around the region and throughout the world, the Asian Institute of Technology stands out as a uniquely international organization of higher learning committed to advancing quality teaching, learning, research, capacity-building and outreach beyond boundaries. In 2011, AIT delivered on its pledge to “develop highly qualified and committed professionals who play a leading role in the region’s sustainable development and its integration into the global economy” in a multitude of ways, many of which are reflected throughout the pages of this Annual Report. Once again, AIT distinguished itself through its niche capacity for networking, connecting, reaching out as a positive agent for change for people from developing countries, and by servicing countries in transition with knowledge and expertise. Across our faculty, staff, students, alumni, friends, partners, supporters and stakeholders, the Institute achieved great results through ever more partnerships with public and private sector enterprises, all the while emphasizing excellence and practicality in the delivery of cutting edge new knowledge and enhanced human capital. In 2011, the Institute proudly finalized development of its research policy and research

  • Open Letter to G8 Leaders on a Global Fund for Education from Mary Robinson, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Muhammad Yunus
    OPEN LETTER TO G8 LEADERS ON A GLOBAL FUND FOR EDUCATION FROM MARY ROBINSON, ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU AND MUHAMMAD YUNUS June 30, 2009 To the Leaders of the G8: We, the undersigned, are writing to implore the leaders of the world’s richest countries to renew their commitment to the children of the world by revitalizing the global compact on Education for All. At this year’s G8, we urge those same leaders to announce an agreement to launch a fully resourced Global Fund for Education. We are heartened by the commitment of the United States President, Barack Obama, to provide a contribution of at least $2 billion dollars to a Global Fund for Education which would help to eliminate the global education deficit by 2015. Such a bold and ambitious plan should be endorsed by other members of the G8 through a public commitment to such an initiative, which must be launched before the end of the year with full funding. A Global Fund for Education would ensure that the funding shortfall is no longer the main impediment to progress on basic education, and moreover that those investments have the greatest impact on access to and quality of education. At this time of fiscal crises, it is even more imperative that we provide the safety net of knowledge to the world’s poorest children and save them from paying with their lives for our financial mistakes. Education must be an integral part of the global response to the economic crisis. Without skills such as literacy, numeracy and problem-solving, millions of children and adults are trapped in poverty.

  • Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei
    Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei By ©2016 Alison Miller Submitted to the graduate degree program in the History of Art and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Maki Kaneko ________________________________ Dr. Sherry Fowler ________________________________ Dr. David Cateforis ________________________________ Dr. John Pultz ________________________________ Dr. Akiko Takeyama Date Defended: April 15, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Alison Miller certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Maki Kaneko Date approved: April 15, 2016 ii Abstract This dissertation examines the political significance of the image of the Japanese Empress Teimei (1884-1951) with a focus on issues of gender and class. During the first three decades of the twentieth century, Japanese society underwent significant changes in a short amount of time. After the intense modernizations of the late nineteenth century, the start of the twentieth century witnessed an increase in overseas militarism, turbulent domestic politics, an evolving middle class, and the expansion of roles for women to play outside the home. As such, the early decades of the twentieth century in Japan were a crucial period for the formation of modern ideas about femininity and womanhood. Before, during, and after the rule of her husband Emperor Taishō (1879-1926; r. 1912-1926), Empress Teimei held a highly public role, and was frequently seen in a variety of visual media.

  • 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.
