THAILAND Submission to the CERD Committee Coalition on Racial
Shadow Report on Eliminating Racial Discrimination: THAILAND Submission to the CERD Committee 1 Coalition on Racial Discrimination Watch Preamble: 1. “ We have a distinct way of life, settlement and cultivation practices that are intricately linked with nature, forests and wild life. Our ways of life are sustainable and nature friendly and these traditions and practices have been taught and passed on from one generation to the next. But now because of State policies and waves of modernisation we are struggling to preserve and maintain our traditional ways of life” Mr. Joni Odochao, Intellectual, Karen ethnic, Opening Speech at the Indigenous Peoples Day Festival in Chiangmai, Northern Thailand 2007 Introduction on Indigenous peoples and ethnic groups in Thailand 1 The coalition was established as a loose network at the Workshop Programme on 5th July 2012 on the Shadow Report on the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) organised by the Ethnic Studies and Development Center, Sociology Faculty, Chiangmai University in cooperation with Cross Cultural Foundation and the Highland Peoples Taskforce 1 2. The Network of Indigenous Peoples in Thailand2, in the International Working Group for Indigenous Affairs (IWGIA) yearbook on 2008, explained the background of indigenous peoples in Thailand. The indigenous people of Thailand are most commonly referred to as “hill tribes”, sometimes as “ethnic minorities”, and the ten officially recognised ethnic groups are usually called “chao khao” (meaning “hill/mountain people” or “highlanders”). These and other indigenous people live in the North and North-western parts of the country. A few other indigenous groups live in the North-east and indigenous fishing communities and a small population of hunter-gatherers inhabit the South of Thailand. -

Front Cover [Do not print] Replace with page 1 of cover PDF WILLIAM CAREY LIBRARY NEW RELEASE Developing Indigenous Leaders Lessons in Mission from Buddhist Asia (SEANET 10) Every movement is only one generation from dying out. Leadership development remains the critical issue for mission endeavors around the world. How are leaders developed from the local context for the local context? What is the role of the expatriate in this process? What models of hope are available for those seeking further direction in this area, particularly in mission to the Buddhist world of Asia? To answer these and several other questions, SEANET proudly presents the tenth volume in its series on practical missiology, Developing Indigenous Leaders: Lessons in Mission from Buddhist Asia. Each chapter in this volume is written by a practitioner and a mission scholar. Th e ten authors come from a wide range of ecclesial and national backgrounds and represent service in ten diff erent Buddhist contexts of Asia. With biblical integrity and cultural sensitivity, these chapters provide honest refl ection, insight, and guidance. Th ere is perhaps no more crucial issue than the development of dedicated indigenous leaders who will remain long after missionaries have returned home. If you are concerned about raising up leaders in your ministry in whatever cultural context it may be, this volume will be an important addition to your library.

PRS Mani in Southeast Asia
1 FORUM: Wartime Globalization in Asia The transnational mission of an Indian war correspondent: P. R. S. Mani in Southeast Asia, 1944 – 1946 Heather Goodall University of Technology Sydney [email protected] with Mark Ravinder Frost University of Essex [email protected] Abstract: This article, based on new archival materials, reconstructs the experiences and observations of an Indian war correspondent as, from 1944 to 1946, he covered the advance of Indian soldiers of the British-led Indian Army from northeast India, through Burma to Malaya at the war's end, then to their eventual deployment with the South East Asian Command in Java after the Japanese surrender. As it transpired, Captain P. R. S. Mani worked as an enlisted public relations officer of the British-led Indian Army but also sustained his commitment as a patriotic Indian nationalist, who gathered intelligence on the Indian diaspora in Southeast Asia and on the impact of Subhas Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army. Relatively little scholarship has focused on Asian war journalism. Mani’s tension-ridden role as a self-styled ‘Indian Army observer’ provides an illuminating insight into the way Britain’s lines of communication were appropriated and subverted during wartime and beyond, and into the way his own nationalism was reshaped by his unofficial transnational activities. ……………………………………………….. The transnational mission of an Indian war correspondent: P. R. S. Mani in Southeast Asia, 1944 – 1946 Armies on the move have long generated lines of communication and flows of information that extended across vast distances. By the mid-twentieth century, the traffic in military information took the form of official dispatches, orders, intelligence and requests for supply, civilian propaganda, soldiers’ correspondence and war reportage, not to mention rumour. -

Laos Ethnicity in Laos Group selection Laos is a multi-ethnic country officially encompassing 49 ethnic groups (2910), which have been grouped primarily by language and 2910 [National Statistics Center of the Lao PDR, 2006] location into one of three categories: the Lao Loum (Lowland Lao), and the hill tribes constituting of the Lao Theung (Upper Lao) and the Lao Sung (Highland Lao) (2911; 2912, 247-248). Based on this 2911 [National Statistics Center of the Lao PDR, 2006] classification and linguistic considerations, we identify the following 2912 [Levinson, 1998] politically relevant groups: • The Lao (incl. Phuan) make up just over half of the total population according to the 2015 census and tend to be con- centrated in the flatlands and valleys (2913). They speak Lao, a 2913 [Minority Rights Group International, 2018a] Tai-language, and are the largest and most important Lao Loum group (2914, 247). Most people from this group are Theravada 2914 [Levinson, 1998] Buddhists (2915). 2915 [Minority Rights Group International, 2018a] • The remaining Lao Tai speakers include the lowland Phu Tai and several tribes who live in the higher valleys and on the middle slopes of the mountains in northern Laos. The tribes are usually categorized according to their traditional costumes, e.g. the Tai Dam (Black Tai). They are regarded as inferior by lowland Lao, and Tai, in turn, look down on lowland Lao for having failed to maintain Tai tradition and culture (2916). 2916 [Minority Rights Group International, 2018b] • The Lao Theung, sometimes called Lao Thoeng tend to inhabit mid-level slopes and speak numerous Mon-Khmer languages. -

Reproduction is permitted for educational or noncommercial purposes, provided credit is given to EARTHWORKS and Oxfam America. Around the world, large-scale metals mining takes an enormous toll on the health of the environment and communities. Gold mining, in particular, is one of the dirtiest industries in the world. Massive open-pit mines, some measuring as much as two miles (3.2 kilometers) across, generate staggering quantities of waste—an average of 76 tons for every ounce of gold.1 In the US, metals mining is the leading contributor of toxic emissions to the environment.2 And in countries such as Ghana, Romania, and the Philippines, mining has also been associated with human rights violations, the displacement of people from their homes, and the disruption of traditional livelihoods. -

Building Capacity for Multidisciplinary Landscape Assessment in Papua: Three Phases of Training and Pilot Assessments in the Mamberamo Basin
P.O. Box 6596 JKPWB Tel. (62) 251 622622 Jakarta 10065 Fax (62) 251 622100 CIFOR Indonesia Building Capacity for Multidisciplinary Landscape Assessment in Papua: three phases of training and pilot assessments in the Mamberamo Basin A report based on work jointly undertaken in 2004 by the Center for International Forestry Research, Conservation International (Papua Program), Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI), 18 Papua- based Trainees, and the people of Papasena-I and Kwerba Villages. MLA in Papua, Page 1 SUMMARY Conservation International (CI) supports a number of ongoing initiatives in the Mamberamo area of Papua. The principal aims are to strengthen biodiversity conservation and environmental management and facilitate the creation of a ‘Mamberamo Biodiversity Conservation Corridor’, which links currently established protected areas through strategically placed ‘indigenous forest reserves’. Two primary requirements are 1) to find suitable means to allow local communities to participate in decision-making processes, and 2) capacity building of locally based researchers to assist in planning and developing this program. The MLA training reported here is designed to build capacity and assess options and opportunities within this context. The Centre for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) has developed methods for assessing 'what really matters' to communities living in tropical forest landscapes. Known as the Multidisciplinary Landscape Assessment or ‘MLA' (see http://www.cifor.cgiar.org/mla), this approach enhances understanding amongst conservation and development practitioners, policy makers and forest communities. Information yielded through the MLA can identify where local communities’ interests and priorities might converge (or conflict) with conservation and sustainable development goals. CIFOR's MLA methods have already been applied in Indonesia (East Kalimantan), Bolivia and Cameroon.
