Travel the Old Village of Ta-Nao-Sri Mountains The left bank of the Khao Laem Lake is the origin of the Khwae Noi River, far from the Vajiralongkorn Dam where we will start this trip. This is a rich area of the famous Western Forest of Kanchanaburi province in which some parts have been cleared for agriculture by the older generation of more than 40-50 years ago. The area north of this Dam is wide enough to allow the beautiful nature to be hidden for it to always exist. The blood of the Enduro rider like us has never stopped. A new trip will always be there, and this time, we chose to travel to Thong Pha Phum at Ban I Tong, or the Pilok Mine that many people already know during the best and most beautiful time as well as the most difficult for sure. Our partner for this trip was a Kawasaki KLX150 BF that is very agile for the muddy conditions of the teak forest and jungle route, which are moist with the rain falling a few times per day without anything ever being dry. The Vajiralongkorn Dam was the meeting place we could get up and keep on for starting this trip.

As far as the eye could see, the road was wet like a soft cake stretching into the deep forest and going far enough to be beautiful in itself like a fish in water.

This called on all route alternating with the the skills that the instructors had once taught us in sunlight of Kanchanaburi the Enduro class to use everything all at once. No created a problem of matter if you could read the way, ride through the accumulated humidity for basin or the slippery steep slope, or even controll the city people wearing a the brake and throttle to go smoothly, the KLX150 full motocross outfit like BF was still able to take us through this without any us.

If we sometimes like excessive speed, then we have to remind ourselves that our travelling companions might be able to often avoid potholes and eat dust. But let us remind you that, we cannot even be 20% careless, so that others are careless. Results have shown that good travelling is not bad for health, so we do not have any accidents. The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has considered that the highway of 399 bends is threatening for other tourists, but we were not discouraged because when riding up the Tanao Sri Mountain range of the We arrived at Muban I Tong at almost dusk Thong Pha Phum National Park, it after spending most of the day riding along was still beautiful and pleasant.

Myanmar and Thailand are adjacent countries that together occupy more than the half the area of continental Tropical Asia. This geographic area is diverse ecologically, ranging from cool-temperate to tropical climates, and includes from coast, rainforests and high mountain elevations. An updated checklist of aquatic plants, which includes 78 species in 44 genera from 24 families, are presented based on floristic works. This number includes seven species, that have never been listed in the previous floras and checklists. The species (excluding non-indigenous taxa) were categorized by five geographic groups with the exception of to reflect the rich diversity of the countries' floras.

  • But with the Defeat of the Japanese (The Railway) Vanished Forever and Only the Most Lurid Wartime Memories and Stories Remain
    －104－ NOTES ON THE THAI-BURMA RAILWAY PART Ⅳ: "AN APPALLING MASS CRIME" But with the defeat of the Japanese (the railway) vanished forever and only the most lurid wartime memories and stories remain. The region is once again a wilderness, except for a few neatly kept graveyards where many British dead now sleep in peace and dignity. As for the Asians who died there, both Burmese and Japanese, their ashes lie scattered and lost and forgotten forever. - Ba Maw in his diary, "Breakthrough In Burma" (Yale University, 1968). To get the job done, the Japanese had mainly human flesh for tools, but flesh was cheap. Later there was an even more plentiful supply of native flesh - Burmese, Thais, Malays, Chinese, Tamils and Javanese - ..., all beaten, starved, overworked and, when broken, thrown carelessly on that human rubbish-heap, the Railway of Death. -Ernest Gordon, former British POW, in his book, "Miracle on the River Kwai" (Collins, 1963). The Sweat Army, one of the biggest rackets of the Japanese interlude in Burma is an equivalent of the slave labour of Nazi Germany. It all began this way. The Japanese needed a land route from China to Malaya and Burma, and Burma as a member or a future member of the Co-prosperity Sphere was required to contribute her share in the construction of the Burma-Thailand (Rail) Road.... The greatest publicity was given to the labour recruitment campaign. The rosiest of wage terms and tempting pictures of commodities coming in by way of Thailand filled the newspapers. Special medical treatment for workers and rewards for those remaining at home were publicised.

  • Chapter 4 Current Condition in the Study Area
    Chapter 4 Current Condition in the Study Area CHAPTER 4 CURRENT CONDITION IN THE STUDY AREA 4.1 Natural Condition (1) Topography and Geology The Lam Pa Chi River basin is a part of the Mae Klong Basin located in the western edge. The basin is bounded in the west by the mountain range forming the border with Burma, and on the south by mountains forming the boundary between Ratchaburi and Phetchaburi Provinces. The eastern and northern boundaries of the basin are not so clear but surrounded by a chain of small mountains with the total area of around 2,500 km2 of the basin area, the western half of it is occupied by mountainous zone continuing to Myanmar. Mountains are low but rather steep, ranging from 700 to 1,100 m msl. Eastern half of the basin is mostly plain with many small isolated mountains scattered. Minor tribes namely Kalin, Mon, Barma are the inhabitants in the area. The standard of living remains very low. Most of the river systems in Thailand, including the Mae Klong and the Kwae Yai/Noi Rivers from the upstream, flow down roughly towards south from north. However, the Lam Pa Chi River is, solely and remarkably, flows up to north from south, suggesting rather complicated history of river development. Basic geology of the basin is classified into two categories, sedimentary sequences including metamorphic phases and intrusive rocks, mainly granite bodies. The sedimentary sequences form low but steep mountains in the west of the basin, consisted of sandstone, quartzite, shale, and limestone, accompanied with metamorphic rocks of slate, phyllite, gneiss and schist.

  • My Kwai… an Unabridged Account of Travelling the Thai River Region That Inspired a Movie Legend
    TRAVEL My Kwai… AN UNABRIDGED ACCOUNT OF TRAVELLING THE THAI RIVER REGION THAT INSPIRED A MOVIE LEGEND bout 120 kilometres northwest of Bangkok, nestled against the Myanmar border, lies the province of Kanchanaburi. The province’s capital town – perhaps a little confusingly, also known as Kanchanaburi – is home to some 30,000 residents and swollen all-year-round with a never-ending tide of tourists. Notoriously, the province is home to the Death Railway – the Burma-Thailand line built by prisoners-of-war under the watchful eyes of the Japanese occupying forces of World War II. ATo many, it will be best known for its starring role in The Bridge On the River Kwai, the 1957 movie that told the tale of the construction of this infamous project. The movie, though, was actually filmed in Sri Lanka – although The Deer Hunter, Michael Cimino’s 1978 Academy Award-winning film, genuinely was filmed here. Over the years, historians – and politicians of various hues – have taken issue with The Bridge On the River Kwai’s take on this controversial episode. Both its geography and its depiction of the inhumane conditions of the POWs toiling over its construction have been greatly disputed. 150 151 TRAVEL Today, the bridge seen by many visitors is not though, and the way that the items have been left Many that come to revisit the past, find themselves the original one.

The distribution and diversity of aquatic insects and water quality variables were studied among three streams of the Mae Klong Watershed. In each stream, two sites were sampled. Aquatic insects and water quality variables were randomly sampled seven times in February, May, September, and December 2010 and in January, April, and May 2011. Overall, 11,153 individuals belonging to 64 families and nine orders were examined. Among the aquatic insects collected from the three streams, the order Trichoptera was most diverse in number of individuals, followed by Ephemeroptera, Hemiptera, Odonata, Coleoptera, Diptera, Plecoptera, Megaloptera, and Lepidoptera. The highest Shannon index of diversity of 2.934 and 3.2 was recorded in Huai Kayeng stream and thelowest was in Huai Pakkok stream (2.68 and 2.62).

A REVIEW OF THE SOFTSHELL TURTLES OF THE GENUS CHITRA, WITH THE DESCRIPTION OF NEW TAXA FROM MYANMAR AND INDONESIA (JAVA) William P. McCord1 and Peter C. H. Pritchard2 1East Fishkill Animal Hospital, Hopewell Junction, NY 12533, U.S.A. (Fax: 845-221-2570; Email: [email protected]) 2Chelonian Research Institute, 401 South Central Ave, Oviedo, FL, 32765, U.S.A. (Fax: 407-977-5142; Email: [email protected]) ABSTRACT.– Taxonomic, distribution and morphological data are presented for the trionychid turtle genus Chitra (Testudines: Trionychidae). Many confusing taxonomic details are clarified. Types and type localities are described for both previously named Chitra species. Details of forelimb scalation, chromatic and pattern characteristics, original head drawings accentuating phenotypic characters, shell morphology, general skeletal details, and mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequencing results are presented. The overall range of the genus Chitra is discussed, with details of field collections confirming previously undescribed Indonesian populations. A new species of narrow-headed softshell, Chitra vandijki sp. nov. is described from the Ayeyarwaddy River drainage, Myanmar, distinguished from its congeners by its distribution, a unique combination of carapace, head and neck patterns, and genetic sequence divergence of a level corresponding to full species recognition. A new subspecies of narrow-headed softshell turtle, Chitra chitra javanensis ssp. nov., is described from eastern Java, Indonesia, distinguished from the nominate subspecies by its distribution, by details of carapace, dorsal head and chin patterns, and by a genetic sequence divergence level appropriate to subspecies status.

  • Japanese Hidden Heritage in Thailand มรดกญี่ปุ นที่ซ อนเร นอยู
    Japanese Hidden Heritage in Thailand มรดกญี่ปุนที่ซอนเรนอยูในประเทศไทย Sakesit Paksee* Abstract This study is of Japanese hidden Heritage in Thailand. The purpose of the project can be expressed as two related objectives. The first is to investigate and comment on the presence of the Japanese in Thailand in the three broadly defined periods : Ages of Participation, of Imperialism, of Globalization and on the heritage that the Japanese presence has left and continues to bequeath in modern Thailand. The second objective can prove more problematic. It is to ask how diverse and sometimes opposed memories - ideas of heritage-intersect. This can be expressed in another way: whose heritage is it ? The approach to be taken is a combination of fieldwork and documentary research. A range of relevant sites were visited and observed: in Ayutthaya, Kanchanaburi province, Siracha in Chonburi province and various districts in Bangkok. Documentary research mostly covered secondary material. The methodological issue was to bring these two sets of information together. The study concludes that Japanese heritage in Thailand from the Age of Participation is indeed little more than memories and stories. That from the Age of Imperialism (World War II) is mostly suppressed - to be forgotten, even denied. The heritage of the present era or the Age of Globalization might challenge clear definition: it is the living heritage of the city’s life and diversity. The story of the Japanese in Thailand raises the question of the ‘forms of heritage’ of one nation (Japan) in the territory of another (Thailand), variously ‘museum’ heritage, ‘denied’ heritage, ‘negative’ heritage and ‘living’ heritage.
