It is a tremendous honor for me to be the current Editor-in-Chief (EIC) of this well-regarded journal. I am pleased to announce that the AJMI has recently been promoted to be placed in the ASEAN Citation Index (ACI). I would therefore like to take this opportunity to express my thanks to all the contributing authors for providing such a rich variety of outstanding research articles and to the editorial members, reviewers and all staff who have helped to make this AJMI successfully achieve this level. In this issue (V3N1), we are pleased to publish eleven selected papers focussing on the diverse themes of business management, marketing, the hotel industry, education and the AEC impact on an important Thai industry. These papers explore (inter-alia) customer perspectives toward expectations of product returns in the mobile industry, satisfaction on service quality in the mobile banking service, and relationship management capability and marketing survival. Other interesting papers investigate the multilevel structural equation model of the universities in Thailand, climate change related research from within the banking industry, and international business law. One article outlines the research outcomes investigating the risk and return in the Thai equity mutual fund using ranking matrix. Papers relating to the hotel industry and business management investigate the integration of organic foods into the opportunities for the hotel industry in Thailand, along with a study of staff turnover and how to form a good organization for success. In writing on the AEC trend, the paper shows the effect of this trend on the frozen shrimp industry after AEC implementation using the analysis of the market occupation ratio and SWOT analysis. As always, the success of this journal is built on the efforts of all the authors, reviewers, editors and the AJMI staff. Once again, my great thanks to all and I look forward to our continuing relationship and to receiving your future contributions to our AJMI which makes a valuable scholarly contribution to our academic and research community. If you have any comments, please do not hesitate to send an email to: [email protected] and/or visit the website: http://ajmi.stamford.edu. Thank you for your continued support of the AJMI.

Extant literature on managing product returns and the reverse flow of products (Bernon et al, 2013; Hess et al., 1996; Wang et al., 2007) focuses on firm foundations, instead of customer perspectives. This study proposed that to be better managed, consumer product returns might be seen as service offerings. Returns service management could then focus on actual customer expectations. In other words, customer needs and anticipations must be taken into account when providing returns service. A literature review in marketing, product returns, and reverse logistics, as well as individual in-depth interviews were employed. Samples were mobile telephone customers, a rapidly growing industry in Thailand. Qualitative content analysis was the technique used to analyze data. Results were that, based on customer viewpoint, the product returns processes included seeking for returns service information, contacting the service centers, looking forward to compensation/returns, inspecting and receiving compensation/returns and evaluating the whole returns process. Accordingly, twelve customer expectations were identified: tangibles; responsiveness; explanation; empathy;

It is particularly important in the tourism industry when international customers may be unable to communicate directly with service providers in the receiving country, and this has a direct effect on the level of satisfaction that they enjoy during their experience. To address this issue, countries attempt to various degrees to manage their labour markets so as to produce a number of graduates from secondary and tertiary level educational institutions commensurate with the demand from the sector. However, this is quite a young industry at the global level, and it is not clear to what extent the number and quality of such graduates with international language ability will be required. This paper studies the comparative extent of such education at the tertiary level of individuals in both Thailand and Malaysia. It aims to compare the number and variety of people being trained in the tourism and hospitality industry and the extent to which languages are being taught. Results show that there is something of a disconnection between the languages provided and the languages that tourists desire in terms of their mother tongue.

  • English Skills for AEC Communication: a Challenge for Thai Universities
    English skills for AEC communication: A challenge for Thai universities Kantatip Sinhaneti, Shinawatra University, Thailand Wei Fu, Shinawatra University, Thailand Abstract: ASEAN member countries are rapidly approaching a new milestone to be a single market at the end of 2015. Thailand has an ambition to be the hub for international education among ASEAN countries. English skills become more important for Thailand when AEC is fully implemented. This paper is based on a study from 16 Thai higher institutions, which offer Bachelor and Master degree programs to improve students’ communication skills in English. The results show that they offer 57 listening and speaking courses and 83 reading and writing courses under those Bachelor programs. Among the programs offered, only one university offers English for Everyday and Social Communication course. They offer a few courses under master level programs to enhance students’ 21st century skills and professional development. From such findings, lacking English communication skills courses will be a big problem for Thai workers to meet the AEC market needs. Perhaps, it’s a great challenge for Thai universities to orchestrate some changes in ELT curricula to provide more English skills courses for real life communication, especially to cater for the AEC market. Key words: AEC, English Skills, Challenge, Thai higher education 1. Introduction ASEAN member countries are rapidly approaching a new milestone to be a single market at the end of 2015. It will be more important than ever for Thais to develop their 21st century and English language skills to compete with the new intercultural workplace. Thailand has an ambition to be the hub for international education among ASEAN countries.

THE 30th YEAR OF THAI PRIVATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY COLLABORATION Praditteera, Malivan Chairperson, the Thai Private University Library Systems and Network Development Sub-Committee – ThaiPul-Net (2013-2015) Library Director, Rangsit University Library, Thailand [email protected] ABSTRACT The first informal library collaboration network among Thai private academic institutions was created in 1985. The “Private Higher Education Institution Library Group (PHEL)” was founded by librarians from eleven private academic libraries in Thailand. In 1987, the PHEL group was officially established as one of the Sub-committees under the “Association of Private Higher Education Institutions of Thailand”. Accordingly, its name was changed to be “The Sub-Committee on Private University Library Development” and in 2003, the “Sub-Committee on Private University Library Systems and Network Development” (PUL-Net or ThaiPUL-Net respectively). Currently, the ThaiPUL-Net is consisting of 65 libraries from private higher education institutions. Its collaborations and activities have been employed by the following strategic objectives: 1) enhance collaboration by knowledge resource sharing and usage; 2) enhance library quality service development; 3) enhance research and best practices in library and information sciences; 4) act as “a knowledge sharing community” between librarians and information professional.
