  • Conflict in Fishery Resource Utilization: the Case of Light Luring Anchovy Fishery in Thailand
    IIFET 2000 Proceedings Conflict in Fishery Resource Utilization: The Case of Light Luring Anchovy Fishery in Thailand Ruangrai Tokrisna Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Faculty of Economics, Kasetsart University, Bangkok, Thailand Abstract. In late 1999 Artisanal Fisherman Association in Thailand requested the government to take actions in curbing destructive anchovy fishing gears. They believed that anchovy fishing was the main cause of fishery resource depletion in their fishing grounds. Main anchovy fishing gears were light luring falling net, purse seine, and scoop net. All of them are Juvenile bycatch varied from 1.72 – 30.37% of total catches depending on gear type, vessel size, fishing ground, fishing month, and fishing year. Economic losses of juvenile bycatch were $1 – 331/boat/trip. In Songkhla, the crisis problem area, economic losses from light luring falling net were as high as 0.42 – 7.64 times of the return from anchovy. The losses from light luring anchovy purse seine were 23 – 35% of the return from anchovy. The losses from light luring scoop net varied around 2 – 7%. Anchovy catch values in Thailand was $26 million in 1997. Value added from processing was $65 million, mainly from fish sauce. In spite of low value added, 59% of the catches were processed as boiled-dried/dried anchovy mainly for export. 44% of the anchovy value in the importing country were the trade margins, including tax, in importing country. Fishing cost was 20%. This cost estimation did not include the economic loss from juvenile bycatch. Processing and marketing costs in Thailand amounted to 19%.

  • Eastern Seaboard Report
    Eastern Seaboard Report October 2014 – Prepared by Mark Bowling, Chairman ESB Thailand's bearish automotive market has deterred two Japanese car makers, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation and Nissan Motor, from commencing production of their new eco- car. "Our parent company has not yet approved the exact time frame for production, as the domestic market has experienced weaker growth than was enjoyed in 2012," said Masahiko Ueki, president and chief executive of Mitsubishi Motors (Thailand). "Next year's prospects are unpredictable, as the economy and consumption will take time to recover," he said. Mitsubishi was one of the five companies that applied for Board of Investment (BoI) promotion for the second phase of the eco-car scheme. All eco-car production will be done at Mitsubishi's third plant in Laem Chabang Industrial Estate in Chon Buri province. The government confirmed changes to its high-speed development plan, adding a Bangkok-Rayong route and splitting the Nong Khai-Map Ta Phut route into two — Nong Khai-Nakhon Ratchasima and Nakhon Ratchasima-Bangkok-Map Ta Phut. The Nong Khai- Map Ta Phut route would cover 737 kilometres and cost 393 billion baht, while the Chiang Khong-Phachi route would be 655 km and cost 349 billion. Two high-speed rail routes costing a combined 741 billion baht would link Thailand with southern China. Bang Na-Trat office demand up - With office rents in Bangkok's central business district rising by 15% last year and nearly 6% more so far this year, more companies are considering Bang Na-Trat Road an alternative due to its competitive rents and convenient access to both the CBD and the Eastern Seaboard.

Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan ミャンマー ラオス Myanmar Laos タイ Bangkok バンコク カンボジアCambodia Chonburiチョンブリ プロジェクトサイトProject site Map of project area: Bangkok-Chon Buri, Bangkok-Chon Buri Expressway Thailand 1.1 Background In the Sixth Five-Year National Economic and Social Development Plan (1987-1991), the Thai Government specified promotion of the Eastern Seaboard Development Plan as a priority project constituting a key element in the development of the country’s industrial base. This plan sought the development of the eastern coastal area extending over the three provinces of Chon Buri, Rayong, and Chachoengsao (a 80-200km zone in Bangkok’s southeastern district) as Thailand’s No. 2 industrial belt next to Bangkok with a view to developing export industries and correcting regional disparities, thereby decentralizing economic functions that would contribute to ease over-concentrated situation in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area. In response to this decision, the Ministry of Transport, Department of Highways (DOH) established the Sixth Five-Year Highway Development Plan (1987-1991), in which development of a highway network to support the development of the eastern coastal area was positioned as a top-priority project. To achieve this priority objective, the DOH planned construction of the following three routes: expansion of the highway for transport of goods and materials between Bangkok and the eastern coastal area 1 (projects (1) and (2) below), and construction of a highway linking Thailand’s inland northeastern districts to the coastal area, bypassing highly congested Bangkok (project (3) below).

  • Not for Quote the OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE AS
    Preliminary Draft: not for Quote THE OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE AS A CATALYST OF FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT AND INDUSTRIAL AGGLOMERATION Matsuo WATANABE Japan Institute of International Affairs 1. INTRODUCTION This chapter is intended to investigate the contribution of infrastructure development financed by official development assistance (ODA) to attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) and formation of industrial agglomeration with reference to the automotive industry in Thailand. Thailand has been one of the major production bases in the ASEAN, and currently there are 700 automotive-related companies. The origin of the industry in Thailand dates back to the 1960s when the country invited foreign manufacturers, mainly Japanese, under the import substitution industrialisation (ISI) strategy. The country subsequently changed to an export-oriented strategy in the beginning of the 1970s afterwards which has led to the remarkable success of industrialisation (including automotive sector) and economic development. The success of Thai automotive industry is represented by the expansion of volume of production and export which has been the largest among ASEAN members. This expansion is enabled by a concentration of investments in the industry (known as ‘agglomeration’), among others, from foreign part suppliers in the Eastern Seaboard (ESB) area. The determinants of FDI have been analysed in number of past literature including FDI to the ASEAN economies in which provision of infrastructure as well as existence of industrial agglomeration have positive impacts on attracting FDI1. 1 For example, Kohama and Urata (2001) stress the importance of host countries’ condition in 1 This study investigates how the agglomeration of automotive industry has taken place in Thailand.
