The outside was not modified much at all, but the inside was re-furbished throughout, new lighting in the chapel, new tile in the cultural hall, new doors and door trim. The main entry was extended outward to almost then end of the roof overhang. The most used entry is now the side entry at the front of the building. The International ward was the first to move back into the building last November, followed more recently by the Asoke ward. The stake offices can still be found at the rear of the building. Attendance at the International ward was about 150, with several nationalities represented. It was the last Sunday Robert Griffiths and his family were in Bangkok. They moved to Washington D.C. in preparation for his new assignment next year in Shanghai, China.

    Section 3 Floods in Thailand that caused a significant impact on trade environment, etc. of neighboring nations/regions, including Japan 1. Cause of last year’s floods in Thailand and measures to be taken in the future (1) 2011: the year that the world suffered large-scale natural disasters Last year was a year in which the world suffered a number of large-scale natural disasters, including the Great East Japan Earthquake and floods in Thailand (Figure 2-3-1-1). According to Munich Reinsurance Company (Munich RE) (2012), natural disasters in 2011 exerted the costliest toll in history, resulting in $380 billion worth of economic losses (Table 2-3-1-2).41 Although the number of natural catastrophes that occurred globally in 2011 was 820, nearly the same as the last 10 years’ average (790), the year was characterized by a significant loss from geophysical events, such as the Great East Japan Earthquake (total loss of $210 billion: the largest on the list) and the earthquake in New Zealand (total loss of $16 billion: third on the list), with nearly 60% of 2011’s losses attributable to these earthquakes. What distinguishes 2011 from other previous years is that normally, weather-related natural catastrophes cause most of the economic losses, with geophysical events accounting for less than 10% of insured losses over the past 30 years).

They need tools to systematize the collection and analysis of data, and then to self-assess environmental performance to increase efficiency in environmental management toward a sustainable city. The aim of this study is to develop a platform for self- assessment of an environmental performance index. Nonthaburi municipality, Hat Yai municipality, and Yasothon municipality were selected to study the work context for six indicators, viz., energy, greenhouse gas, water, air, waste, and green area, which were important environmental problems.

  • Thailand Wat Nakorn-In Bridge and Connecting Road Construction Project (I) (II)
    Thailand Wat Nakorn-In Bridge and Connecting Road Construction Project (I) (II) External Evaluator: Keishi Miyazaki (OPMAC Corporation) Field Survey: September 2006 1．Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Bangladesh Myanmar Laos Thailand Bangkok Vietnam Project Site Cambodia Malaysia Map of project area Rama V Bridge (formerly the Wat Nakorn-In Bridge) constructed by this project 1.1 Background A distinct lack of road capacity became apparent in the suburbs (which lie within the Outer Ring Road) due to the expansion of the urban zone in the Bangkok metropolitan area. Particularly in the area along the western bank of the Chao Phraya River from northern Bangkok to southern Nonthaburi Province, road congestion during the morning and evening rush hour became serious, because adequate bridges across the Chao Phraya River were not being built, even though farmland was rapidly being turned to residential and commercial use and traffic volume on existing roads and bridges was increasing markedly. In southern Nonthaburi Province, which is the site of this project, the only road bridges spanning the Chao Phraya River were the Phra Nang Klao Bridge toward the north and the Rama VII Bridge toward the south. Moreover, there were only two trunk roads which connected the Chao Phraya River and the Outer Ring Road, the northerly Rathan Thibet Road and the southerly Nakorn Chai Sri Road. For this reason, these roads and bridges experienced chronic congestion in the morning and evening; moreover, because no north-south trunk road existed in that area, vehicles that were bound north or south had to travel via central Bangkok, further exacerbating the traffic congestion in the metropolitan area.

  • Floodwalls Built After the 2011 Floods in Central Thailand
    Research Report “It is Built Against Nature:” Floodwalls Built After the 2011 Floods in Central Thailand Danny Marks* * School of Geosciences, University of Sydney; email: [email protected] Research Report 2016 Project Improving Flood Management Abstract in Thailand A political ecology of the Thai state’s response to the 2011 floods Research leader Nipon Poapongsakorn in Central Thailand is developed initially by analyzing the discourses used by key state actors to describe the causes of the floods. Rather than blaming flooding on an overreliance on flood-control infrastructure, poor Copyright © 2016 by land use, and mismanagement in 2011, they blamed the floods on nature, Thailand Development too much water and encroachment of waterways. Government actors at Research Institute Foundation all levels decided to build back Central Thailand by constructing more Printed in Thailand and higher floodwalls. They did this for a number of reasons, particularly their view of the unfeasibility of land use control, their attempt to please the electorate, and the opportunities they saw for patronage. Government agencies chose locations for these floodwalls that would enable them to protect urban centers, either at the regional level (the entire metropolis of Bangkok) or at the municipal level (the inner city). They claimed that these projects were necessary because they would protect spaces that are more valuable economically. The effects of these projects are inequitable and unfair. A number of groups, who are located on the periphery of society and will bear the costs of these projects, have opposed them. In most cases they were unable to bring about significant changes to the projects or plans for them.
