Den Chai Chiang Rai Chiang Khong New Double-Track Railway (12/12/2020) The Cabinet on 8 December 2020 approved a draft Royal Decree, designating land expropriation boundaries in certain areas for implementing the new double-track railway between Den Chai, Chiang Rai, and Chiang Khong in northern Thailand. The areas include some parts of Den Chai, Sung Men, Mueang Phrae, Nong Muang Khai, and Song districts in Phrae province; Ngao district in Lampang province; Mueang Phayao, Dok Khamtai, and Phu Kamyao districts in Phayao province; and Pa Daet, Thoeng, Mueang Chiang Rai, Wiang Chai, Wiang Chiang Rung, Doi Luang, and Chiang Khong districts in Chiang Rai province. The Den Chai Chiang Rai Chiang Khong double-track railway project aims to facilitate goods transportation from Thailand to China through two major channels, namely Chiang Saen Commercial Port and the fourth Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge (Chiang Khong) in Chiang Rai. The length of the railway is 308 kilometers, with a maximum speed of 160 km per hour. The project requires an investment of 79,619 million baht, and it is expected to be completed in 2025. It comprises four tunnels, with a total length of 13.4 kilometers. When it is open for service, 4,811 people are likely to use this service each day. The project is expected to accommodate 313,669 tons of products from Thailand each year. When products from China are included, the volume will increase to about 1.6 million tons a year. The Bureau of the Budget stated that it would allocate a budget for the project, based on necessity and suitability, after the draft Royal Decree took effect. 29/09/2021 Page 1 กรมประชาสัมพันธ์.

Impacts and Effectiveness of Logging Bans in Natural Forests: Thailand
Page 1 of 17 IMPACTS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF LOGGING BANS IN NATURAL FORESTS: THAILAND Sureeratna Lakanavichian INTRODUCTION Thailand has a total land area of 513 115 km 2 and a population of 61.1 million people (1998) with an annual growth rate of 1.1 percent (World Bank 2000). The economy consists of a diverse mix of agriculture, manufacturing and service industries. Rapid urbanization has taken place since the 1980s. The population density is about - 120 persons/km 2 (RFD 1998) and 23 percent of the population live in urban areas. Government estimates indicate that Thailand's forest cover declined from 53.3 percent of the total land area in 1961 to 25 percent in 1999 (Table 48). FAO (1999) estimates place forest cover at only 22.8 percent in 1995. Annual deformation rates have exceeded 3 percent for much of the time since 1961 (FAO 1998) and reached 3.9 percent between 1976 and 1982 (Jantakad and Gilmour 1999). Reforestation did little to stem the trend. A total of only 850.000 to 900.000 ha were planted between 1906 and 1996 (RFD 1998; Green World Foundation 1999). Table 48.

Highland Chiefs and Regional Networks in Mainland Southeast Asia: Mien Perspectives
Highland Chiefs and Regional Networks in Mainland Southeast Asia: Mien Perspectives Le Jiem Tsan, Richard D. Cushman, and Hjorleifur Jonsson* This article is centered on the life story of a Mien upland leader in Laos and later in the kingdom of Nan that subsequently was made a province of Thailand. The story was recorded in 1972 but primarily describes events during 1870–1930. The aim of this article is to call attention to long-standing networks of highland-lowland rela- tions where social life was unstable but always and persistently inclusive and multi- ethnic. The centrality of interethnic hill-valley networks in this Mien case has numerous parallels in studies of Rmeet, Phunoy, Karen, Khmu, Ta’ang, and others in mainland Southeast Asia and adjacent southern China. The implications of the Mien case support an analytical shift from ethnography to ethnology—from the study of singular ethnic groups that are viewed as somehow separate from one another and from lowland polities, and toward a study of patterns and variations in social networks that transcend ethnic labels and are of considerable historical and analytical importance. The shift toward ethnology brings questions regarding the state/non-state binary that was largely taken for granted in studies of tribal peoples as inherently stateless. Keywords: Mien (Yao), history, chiefs, highland peoples, interethnic networks, Thailand, Laos Introduction In the studies of highland societies of mainland Southeast Asia, it is somewhat rare to get a glimpse of chiefs as a significant component of regional networks of relations. When anthropologists studied Thailand’s hill tribes since the 1965 founding of the Tribal Research Center, their mandate was to examine the socio-economic characteristics of the six main tribes: Akha, Hmong, Karen, Lahu, Lisu, and Mien (Geddes 1967; 1983).

Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai
DigitalResources Electronic Survey Report 2013-009 ® Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons Sociolinguistic Survey of Northern Thai Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons SIL International® 2013 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2013-009, April 2013 ©2013 Jennifer Herington, Margaret Potter, Amy Ryan, Jennifer Simmons, and SIL International® All rights reserved Abstract This paper presents the results of a sociolinguistic survey of the Northern Thai varieties spoken in six provinces of Northern Thailand. The purpose of this survey was to determine whether the variety of Northern Thai currently being used for literature development will be adequate for Northern Thai speakers in all of these six provinces, and if not, which varieties should be selected for further development. The researchers conducted brief sociolinguistic questionnaires and modified recorded text tests to investigate sociolinguistic attitudes. The data for this survey was collected in 12 randomly selected sub-districts in 6 provinces of Northern Thailand between December 2011 and February 2012. ii Acknowledgments This research was conducted under the auspices of Payap University Linguistics Institute, Chiang Mai, Thailand. The research team consisted of Jennifer Herington, Amy Ryan, and Jennifer Simmons, with assistance from Margaret Potter and Elizabeth Pisaniello. The report was consultant checked by Margaret Potter. The research team would like to thank the Northern Thai language development team—Ajaan Manop Panyo, Saisunee Nusak, and Pat Lew—for their aid in planning the survey and collecting stories for testing. The team would also like to acknowledge the hospitality and willing participation of the Northern Thai community.
