The scheme aims to make healthcare services accessible to all Thai citizens. In addition, the service is optimally standardized to provide the services to Thai people equally. One of the most important policies is the primary healthcare; it includes to implement a family and community health promotion, to provide primary healthcare services in the district healthcare level, so to reduce the number of patients in the tertiary hospital and to reduce the health expenses in the family and federal healthcare budget. The data from Thai Minister of Public Health (MOPH), department of policy and prevention showed that, in 2008 there were 17.5 million patients with chronic diseases. It was estimated that 308,337 million Baths in a year was spent to provide services to this group of patients. The cost of care per year is expected to rise. It is estimated to cost the government and private expenses around 335,539 million Baths per year (Department of policy and prevention, 2008). One of many strategies in meeting the primary healthcare objectives is to provide healthcare services in the patient’s own home, called home ward, because it showed to reduce the workload and healthcare cost. (Clenment-Stone, Eigsti &Mc Grire,1995, cited in Nursing Office, Thai Ministry of Health, MOPH, 2013: 3) The national health expenses (cost of medication, cost of care) per household has been rising from 71,067 Baths in 193 to 381,387.50 Baths in 2016 (http://social.nesdb.go.th/ social Stat Health 4, Public Health resources) nl thf ehT hr l ot fo thtrop ehT lpb s eT1f pb t rfh ir%i eT 1ff h 17r1ni in 2016. b p f bro h l Tr s f hr l tp e T b slh lpi 1lfhTe1 t eb pb b br1l pb pf l t f T ehTh 1lfhTe1 eetT teb pb h eb1lf e1 l teb pb (Data from 2011-2015) (4 tpf T hr ohoe1 pTt of i T ehTh 2n1 ) nleb f thf 1hTbeb T se l l f thf hr Surin hospital, increase the number of in-patient, out-patient pTt l s t h11rte t fp .

It provides an integrated care which includes health promotion, health prevention, basic treatment and rehabilitation, to support self-care of the people and to encourage their family and community to participate in health self-management. It also enhances and expands the nurse’s authority in their roles and scope of practice in using fundamental of nursing care in home care. In the primary homecare model, the nurse acts as a case manager who collaborate with other healthcare team in transition care from hospital to homecare. This practice helps to reduce the gap of care between primary, secondary and tertiary care by providing knowledge of care and facilitate effective communication to provide effective care for the continuum. To using discharge planning can maintain continuity of care more effective. In 2016, Surin Hospital found that the homecare services were not achieved the quality standard of home visit (set by the Department of Nursing Office, MOPH) due to the communication model between hospital and home care service. Surin Hospital, Surin Public Health Department and Data and Statistic centre in Public Health Faculty in Khon- Kaen University agreed to develop Thai COC Program. It is planned to create a database system to collect patient data, connect the network of data communication between each 3 healthcare service from tertiary healthcare centre to secondary and primary healthcare centre in Thailand. This system helps to promote faster and effective communication and interaction between healthcare providers, as a result it helps to prevent complication from delay care, hospital readmission, and it helps to promote patient recovery and wellbeing. Since the COC has been established, it has been used extensively by the members of healthcare providers. This program and collective databases support the use of information database in the following ways. 1) Using data to analyse the causes of delaying communication and suboptimal care between every levels of healthcare providers by taking into consideration of risk and benefit of individual as followings: 1.1) Able to report a current outcome of homecare, so to follow up and reduce workload of the healthcare worker 1.2) The care workers are able to access their data in their level of care and authority, so security of data is optimal. 1.3) The healthcare index can be analysed in each disease in each geographic area. 1.4) The COC communication network creates a spot map which can be used in a smart phone, tablet and computer. 1.5) There is a survey for customer service satisfaction and quality of life of the patient in the Thai COC, provided in the link via the smart phone. 1.6) The healthcare user can add more care pathway for other disease if needed. 2) To facilitate the meeting between the programmers and users to analyse the problem and update the system if needed. 3) Use the data to develop the Thai COC under the Thai Care Cloud Platform. 4 4) The program was first tested and updated in Surin Province at Gaeyai sub- district Health Promotion Hospital. 5) The program was first roll out on the 5th of September 2016 to the user in Surin province and other provinces, the training was provided to all users inside and outside the regions. 6) Established a continuity care committee in district, provinces and regional level. 7) Created a practice guideline booklet for each disease in a hard copy and uploaded into the Thai COC. 8) Followed up and monitoring the healthcare index target achievements through the meeting at the level of province, district and sub-district. 9) Established an administrator team to monitor and update the system in each level of the healthcare provider, and established the Line group for faster and more effective communication between administrators. Now, the Thai COC is used in 9 health region, covered 39 from 77 provinces in Thailand, by 12,005 users, 4,463 healthcare centres, and 251,166 patients and log in 321,333 times (Data from Thai COC 15th October, 2018).

  • 4. Counter-Memorial of the Royal Government of Thailand
    4. COUNTER-MEMORIAL OF THE ROYAL GOVERNMENT OF THAILAND I. The present dispute concerns the sovereignty over a portion of land on which the temple of Phra Viharn stands. ("PhraViharn", which is the Thai spelling of the name, is used throughout this pleading. "Preah Vihear" is the Cambodian spelling.) 2. According to the Application (par. I), ThaiIand has, since 1949, persisted in the occupation of a portion of Cambodian territory. This accusation is quite unjustified. As will be abundantly demon- strated in the follo~vingpages, the territory in question was Siamese before the Treaty of 1904,was Ieft to Siam by the Treaty and has continued to be considered and treated as such by Thailand without any protest on the part of France or Cambodia until 1949. 3. The Government of Cambodia alleges that its "right can be established from three points of rieivJ' (Application, par. 2). The first of these is said to be "the terms of the international conventions delimiting the frontier between Cambodia and Thailand". More particuIarly, Cambodia has stated in its Application (par. 4, p. 7) that a Treaty of 13th February, 1904 ". is fundamental for the purposes of the settlement of the present dispute". The Government of Thailand agrees that this Treaty is fundamental. It is therefore common ground between the parties that the basic issue before the Court is the appIication or interpretation of that Treaty. It defines the boundary in the area of the temple as the watershed in the Dangrek mountains. The true effect of the Treaty, as will be demonstratcd later, is to put the temple on the Thai side of the frontier.

    SOCIAL CAPITAL AND CLIENTELISM: THE CASE STUDY OF LOCAL DISTRICTS IN THAILAND On-Uma Rattanasripanya A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Development Administration) School of Public Administration National Institute of Development Administration 2011 iii ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation Social Capital and Clientelism: the Case Study of Local Districts in Thailand Author Miss On-Uma Rattanasripanya Degree Doctor of Philosophy (Development Administration) Year 2011 In the era of globalization, the world has changed rapidly within a few years, and the changing complexion of civil society is incommensurable with the traditional life in each society. With this concern and the growing interest in administrative restructure in developing countries, many political scientists and economists have argued that social capital is an important determinant of economic development and of the functioning of institutions. Social capital has commonly been studied in recent years from the perspective of sociology and political science; however, social capital alone cannot explain all of the phenomena to which it has been related. Thus, much more needs to be known about how social capital is related to various affecting factors and what the indicators and benefits of social capital are. In this dissertation, the goal of the study was to explore empirically one particular concept of “social capital” concerning whether it really exists and through what indicators formed in Thai rural communities. Secondly, through different case studies it would be possible to identify the degrees of social capital in different sub- districts. Thirdly, within the political perspective the study will find out whether social capital benefits or affects the choice of local leadership.

I worked with the “Consortium” organization under the administrative of UNHCR. The camp was at Phanat Nikhom, Chonburi, Thailand. I had good social relationship with all of my refugee students in the camp with all clans, tribes and countries. Especially for the Khmers, I learnt Khmer language and Khmer dance. I was fascinated with their arts so much. Apart from this, I took my Ph.D. topic from one part of my previous M.A. thesis “Some aspect of Buddhist arts in Thailand”. Its chapter “Lopburi art” helped me very much to make further studies on details of my present work on this Ph.D. thesis. I am proud of my work and give very much gratitude and my thanks to many persons. I must express my thanks and my gratitude to my re- spected supervisor Professor Dr. Sahai Sachchidanand, Head of the Department of Ancient Indian and Asian Studies, Magadh University, Bodh-Gaya, Bihar (India) who very kindly allowed me to take up this thesis. Besides, he with full attention pours out his scholarship and his knowledge and gave me the benefit of many sug- gestions for my Ph.D.

Rice is stored in barns. Sons and daughters just got married around the first months of the year. Then comes the fifth month or kae-jet, from about the end of march to April, when residents in the Khmer communities in Thailand are ready to make merits and do meritorious deeds for a good cause. For Surin people, the first waxing moon day of the fifth month is the first day of their merit-making activities. Many take a break from work. The first day is known as bon lerng phanom (literally merit-making on the mountain). The center for their traditional, religious activities since the old days has been the Sawai Mountain located in Tambon Na Bua of the Mueang District in Surin Province. Believers will trek up the mountain in order to pay respect to the sacred spirits dwelling up there, also to pray for good things in life to happen. Trekking there is believed to bring good health and well-being. Those who miss this first day activity can do the tom-tooj (a short break of 3 days off work from waxing 1st-3rd, month 5th).
