This tragic incident has been dubbed one of the most destructive natural disaster in the history of mankind. In case of Thailand, this catastrophe tremendously devastated the Andaman Sea coastal communities of 6 southern provinces and claimed many thousands of life both Thai ad foreigners as well as causing tremendous material and economic losses. Many experts have contended that the lack of disaster – warning system and a general lack of preparedness were responsible for the high death toll and tremendous material and economic losses. It has been assessed that the recurrence of tsunamis devastation is likely in Thailand. The assessment has been based on Thailand. The assessment has been based on Thailand’s location within the active fault line zones with the greatest potential for the tsunami – generated undersea earthquakes which include Pacific Ring of Fire, Indonesian fault lines, Andaman and Nicobar fault lines or the Philippine fault system. These seismic fault lines are capable of producing distant tsunamis which possibly make landfall on both Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand coastal regions. So as to be well – prepared to prevent and mitigate the disastrous effects of potential tsunamis and to foster integrated and collaborative efforts among agencies concerned in handling tsunami emergency, Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, Ministry of Interior, hired Pangy Consultants Co. Ltd. To conduct a study and develop Master Plan on Tsunami Disaster Prevention and Mitigation. On 24 March 2009, the Cabinet approved this master plan to be used as framework and guideline for achieving the aforementioned purposes. Department o Disaster Prevention and Mitigation highly anticipates that this master plan will effectively facilitate the preparedness arrangement and concerted efforts of all stakeholders in preventing and mitigating the deadly impact of tsunamis, and eventually minimizing the loss of life and property of the people and the government assets.

BACKGROUND The powerful and destructive tsunami triggered by underwater earthquake measured at 9.3 on Richter scale on 26 December, 2004 caused disastrous consequences in many countries bordering Indian Ocean. It killed approximately 230,000 people including missing, and left behind incalculable economic losses. In Thailand, hundreds of coastal community were severely devastated by this unprecedented natural disaster. It claimed more than 8,000 lives of both Thai and foreigners including missings and maimed 8,475 people. In addition, 58,550 people or 12,815 families were affected, 4,806 houses were destroyed, and the loss of livelihood physical assets were worth approximately 14,491 million Baht. Though Thailand was able to handle post tsunami situation well enough, its disaster management practices reflected some weaknesses which required immediate improvements. These improvements will put preparedness in place beforehand and strengthen and enhance the capacity of all sectors of the society to counter the potential tsunami and to reduce the potential losses. In addition, the tenth National Economic and Social Development (2007 - 2011) gives priority to the formulation of comprehensive disaster management plan which encompasses all phases of disaster managements cycle. Further, it as well highlights long – terms disaster prevention programme, the development of early – warning system and a provision of immediate relief assistance. Thus, Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation hired Panya Consultants Co. Ltd. to conduct a study on master plan on tsunami disaster prevention and mitigation formulation project. This master plan will provide guidelines and framework within which agencies are able to perform the task in a concerted manner and in line with National Civil Defence Plan 2005 (now replaced by National Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Plan (2010 – 2014) and the tenth National Economic and Social Development Plan (2007 – 2011). The six – month time frame for a study started from July 25, 2006 to January 2007.

A cross sectional survey of Enterobius vermicularis was carried out in 808 children in the Bangkok metropolis and nearby provinces. This was accomplished in a mobile health clinic from Huachiew Chalermprakiet University provided for communities in the areas during April 1999 to May 2000. Children 5-10 years of age were investigated for infestation of Enterobius vermicularis. Diagnosis was done by means of the transparent tape swab technique to recover eggs in the perianal region for examination under a light microscope. The average infection rate in children was 21.91% . The highest infection rate (38.59 %) was found in Ang Thong Province, while the lowest one (11.66 %) was found in Chonburi Province. The rate of infection seemed to relate to household environmental factors. The infection rate was significantly higher (p<0.05) in agricultural areas and areas farthest from urban Bangkok. Industrial and urban areas had the lower rates of infection. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the incidence of infection between males and females. INTRODUCTION Various studies have been done to determine the prevalence of helminth infection in Thailand. Different The pinworm, Enterobius vermicularis, is one of methods of diagnosis were utilized, including the the most common parasites infecting Homo sapiens preparation of feces for examination by Kato’s thick worldwide.

    Thailand Page 1 of 6 Thailand International Religious Freedom Report 2008 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor The new Constitution, which became effective on August 24, 2007, provides for freedom of religion, and other laws and policies contributed to the generally free practice of religion. The Government generally respected religious freedom in practice; however, it restricted the activities of some groups. There was no change in the status of respect for religious freedom by the Government during the period covered by this report. The Government does not register new religious groups that have not been accepted into one of the existing religious governing bodies on doctrinal or other grounds. In practice, however, unregistered religious organizations operated freely, and the Government's practice of not recognizing new religious groups did not restrict their activities. The Government officially limits the number of foreign missionaries allowed to work in the country, although unregistered missionaries were present in large numbers and allowed to work freely. There were some reports of societal abuses or discrimination based on religious affiliation, belief, or practice. In the southernmost border provinces, continued separatist violence contributed to tense relations between ethnic Thai Buddhist and ethnic Malay Muslim communities. While the conflict in the south primarily involves ethnicity and nationalism, the close affiliation between ethnic and religious identity in the country has caused it to take on religious overtones. As a result, there were a number of cases in which the violence in the region undermined citizens' abilities to undertake the full range of their religious activities.

  • Thailand (11 August 2014– 17 August 2014)
    Thailand (11 August 2014– 17 August 2014) Southern Thai insurgents continued their activities this week with a number of bombings in Pattani, Narathiwat and Yala provinces. For the most part, members of the security forces on patrol remain the targets. Terrorism A bomb buried under a tree by a canal near Samakkhi School in Kato village, tambon Patae in Yala’s Yaha district was detonated on 12 August 2014 while volunteer rangers were on patrol. The blast killed Rangers Prakasit Rakhpan and Chatchai Lohithan, and injured Ranger Thawee Faipesat.1 2 On 14 August 2014, two further bomb attacks took place in in Pattani province. The first incident occurred in Saiburi district’s tambon Jor Kueyae. The bomb was detonated remotely while a paramilitary security detail passed the atea, and injured Ranger Wattana Chan-orn. The second bomb was detonated in tambon Talomaena in Thung Yang Daeng district. The bomb was concealed in a fire extinguisher and detonated as a police patrol in a pickup truck passed. Four policemen, Pol Sgt Maj Boonsong Gunnaroj, Pol Sgt Maj Adithep Nookongkaeo, Pol L/C Tasmisi Sani and Pol Sgt Boonrit Bangsri, were injured in the blast and rushed to hospital.3 Another bomb was detonated on 15 August in Narathiwat’s Muang district.
