The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) came out to say that the real figure was just about 35% of the entire population. Meanwhile the CCSA’s fate is also to be decided tomorrow on whether it will continue or be disbanded. The data for the inoculation for the country from the 1st shot on February 28th until now is as follows The country has seen 22.6% of the population getting 2 doses Another 38.69 million still are yet to get their 2nd dose All this needs to be done withing 114 days before the end of the year. The average needed to achieve this is to inoculate 339,457 doses per day Yesterday saw 349,973 doses administered, well above the 339,457 that is required. The plans to inoculate the 12-18 years of age continues to remain for the privileged few who managed to register. The inoculation is to start on September 21st and those eligible are kids who are obese, handicapped or have some of the severe diseases. Meanwhile the Chulaborn Research Institute plans for 50,000 doses of Sinopharm for 12- 18 years of age was fully booked in hours yesterday. The ‘Vacc 2 doses School’ campaign was part of the effort to inoculate the young. Public Service Announcement Listed below are the numbers to call in case there is a need for those infected Political News The planned voting of the 3rd reading of the amendment to the 2016 constitution that is set to take place tomorrow (September 10th) is still in a limbo as many senators continue to give conflicting signals on which way they will vote. The charter amendment that has passed 2 readings needs 1 more reading to pass as a law. The amendments switch the country’s voting back to 2 ballot system that benefits big parties that have nationwide network, a move that has been bitterly opposed by the smaller parties and parties that benefited from the 2016 constitution such as ‘Move Forward’. The passage requires at least 84 of the 250 appointed senators to be a law but the positive thing is that the new amendments is supported by the Phalang Pracharat and Pheu Thai parties. Sutin Klangsang, a Pheu Thai MP for Maha Sarakham came out to say this morning that He was still hopeful that the bill would be passed but with the outbreak of Covid- 19 and the infighting in the Phalang Pracharat party (PPRP) there seems to be some change of mind in PPRP. “Earlier they were thinking that they were going to wear the size ‘L’ shirt but now it seems that they are wearing the size ‘S’ shirt”. “I still feel that it is 50:50 for the passage of the bill as there are people in the party who are still looking to pass both in PPRP and also the senate.” To complicate things, the Phalang Pracharat party (PPRP), the 2nd largest party after Pheu Thai, but the leader of the coalition party in power, came out to say, that its MPs can vote as per their will and that there is no party line to vote this time around. Wirat Ratanaset, the head of the government whip, said the PPRP would allow MPs to vote for free because it was the privilege of MPs to vote, but was confident that the two-ballot constitutional amendment will be considered by members of the Parliament. Bhumjai Thai party has already made it clear that it would give free hand to its MPs to vote which way they want to from the 2nd reading and this is likely to be the case going forward for the 3rd reading as well. Rawee Maschamadol, leader of a small New Phalang Dharma party, led representatives of 7 smaller parties to join the government by announcing the position of not voting for 3rd reading by all 7 smaller parties. Dr Rawee said that the new draft constitution would not allow people to have the opportunity to work in the House of Representatives and topple the parliamentary system that is the most fair system. This new charter amendment would make the smaller parties be extinct and medium parties will be impacted as well. Dr Rawee said that on September 10 the smaller parties would ask the senators to vote together to overturn this charter but warned that if the charter amendment is voted to pass then the 7 smaller parties would submit the issue to the Constitutional Court for interpretation on whether such an amendment is allowed or not and whether a referendum is needed before amending the charter or not. Sutin Klangsang, a Pheu Thai MP for Maha Sarakham, as head of the Coordinating Committee of the Joint Opposition Party (Opposition whip) revealed that at the meeting of the 6 opposition parties, the preliminary conclusions will be filed for prosecution, consisting of Regarding the purchase of Sinovac The Prime Minister's use of power to intervene or failing the process of purchasing an antigen test kit (ATK), which is a misconduct according to the Criminal Code, Section 157 Corruption in the rubber project Corruption in the procurement of weapons in the armed forces Apart from this the issue of money distribution on the 3rd floor of the parliament was also a big issue that needs to be discussed. This issue was raised by Wisarn Techatirawat, MP for Chiang Rai, Pheu Thai Party, who made the statement in the parliament. Sutin said that the party would collect more evidence and submit it to the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) of the House of Representatives. representative and the Constitutional Court Today at 13.00, the Office of the Election Commission (EC) will hold a meeting to consider the election of local council members or local administrators of local government organizations. Mr. Wissanu Krea-ngam, Deputy Prime Minister Expected to be able to hold elections for the Sub-District Administrative Organization (SAO) from late November to mid-December, the Pattaya and Bangkok elections. may hold elections together which do not know when, must wait for the Election Commission to determine the date. Nuttawut Saikua, the leader of the Lai Prayut (kick out Prayut) network has posted a message on his personal Facebook that an arrest warrant will be issued for him and subsequently, the Southern Bangkok District Court dismissed the petition in the case where investigators at the Thonglor Police Station filed for arrest warrants for Nattawut and Sombat Boonngaamanong, who held rallies at the Asoke intersection. He said that an arrest warrant can be issued that is the reason why they had to cancel their planned gathering yesterday at Asoke intersection. The court reasoned that such cases carry a penalty of not more than 3-years but expects that a summon should be issued before requesting an arrest warrant being issued. Nuttawut posted a Facebook post announcing a rally on September 19th at 14:00 hrs would now be a ‘Car Mob’ in the middle of Bangkok with the main stage being at Asoke intersection and the tail being all the way up until Ratchadaphisek road. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Economic News A source from the Ministry of Finance revealed that Ministry of Finance was preparing to propose a new round of state welfare card registration. Finance Minister Arkhom Termpittayapaisith came out to say that this new round of program would be for all those who have been impacted. This new program will also include those who have never held a state welfare card before, as they can apply and adjust the minimum income threshold from the original set for no more than 100,000 baht per person per year as a basis for household income and assets such as land, houses or various savings lottery tickets. As for the opening of the new registration round, it may be within this year or next as a decision would be made on this in the near future as it will depend on the appropriate time and the spread of Covid-19 as large gathering can push the number of infections to rise. Currently, there are 13.6 million people receiving these welfare rights. 2014 coup leader and incumbent Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha came out to hold a meeting about the possibility of raising the ceiling of the public debt to beyond 60% and this discussion is due to the fact that the government has had to spend up to 1.5 trillion baht to stimulate the economy. Dechapiwat Na Songkhla, director of the budget bureau, said that usually the country's public debt framework would normally be around 40-42% of the GDP, but during the covid crisis, the government issued an emergency loan decree of 1.5 trillion baht, causing the public debt level to rise by 15% to rise to 58%, which is close to the 60% ceiling.

  • Economic Contributions of Thailand's Creative Industries
    s ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTIONS OF THAILAND’S CREATIVE INDUSTRIES Final Report Kenan Institute Asia Fiscal Policy Institute December 2009 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Thai government has promoted the concept of the “Creative Economy” as critical to Thailand‟s development. This is seen in the draft of the 11th National Development Plan and in the nine government programs for developing creative industries that are included in the second stimulus package (Thai Kem Kang: Strong Thai). The objective of this focus on the creative economy is to establish Thailand as the creative industrial hub of ASEAN and to increase the share of GDP contributed by creativity from 12% to 20% by the end of 2012. Thailand‟s emphasis on the creative economy is not unique. Countries such as the United Kingdom, Singapore, China and India have launched policies to support creativity and intellectual capital. In this report, the Fiscal Policy Research Institute (FPRI) and the Kenan Institute Asia (K.I.Asia) seek to provide a clearer understanding of the creative industries in Thailand and their contribution, both present and potential, to the overall economy. The report quantifies that contribution through an analysis of the input-output (I-O) tables for the selected industries, outlines the value chains for each of these industries, provides comparative data on creative industries in other countries, assesses the impact of violations of intellectual property rights and offers some initial recommendations for government policy measures to help the government achieve its stated objective of developing a creative economy. Since there is no single definition of creative industries that is universally accepted, we have applied the UK‟s DCMS definition of creative industries as „those requiring creativity, skill, and talent, with potential for wealth and job creation through the exploitation of their intellectual property‟.

    Proceedings of the 4th World Conference on Media and Mass Communication, Vol. 4, Issue 2, 2018, pp. 58-65 Copyright © 2018 TIIKM ISSN 2424-6778 online DOI: https://doi.org/10.17501/24246778.2018.4206 THE INTERNATIONAL TRADE OF TELEVISION PROGRAMS IN THAILAND IN THE AGE OF DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGY Sudthanom Rodsawang* Dhurakij pundit University, Thailand Abstract: This article studied the evolution and characteristics of the international trade of TV programs in Thailand as a guideline for TV station executives and TV program producers to identify an opportunity to develop their media business amidst the changing technology and audience behavior in the age of disruptive technology. The research methods included documentary analyses and interviews with mass media scholars, TV station executives, and advertising agency representatives. Most of the popular TV programs at present are copyright shows purchased from overseas, in the forms of purchases of the copyrights of finished programs as well as the copyrights of format programs; most of which were game shows, reality shows, and drama series. The characteristics of the international trade of the TV programs in Thailand included (1) trade of TV programs in the content market, (2) exchanges of TV programs between Thai and international TV stations for broadcasting, and (3) international co-productions of TV programs. Three factors that influenced TV stations in Thailand to purchase foreign TV programs were (1) changes in technology, (2) changes in consumer behavior, and (3) business survival. Therefore, the international trade of TV programs is another solution for TV stations and TV program producers in Thailand to reduce production costs, increase revenues, and expand the audience base worldwide.

  • Tang Xuanzang: the World Famous Buddhist Pilgrim As He Is Known in Thai Art and Literature Assf.Prof.Dr.Sudarat Buntoakul Faculty of Buddhism
    Tang Xuanzang: The World Famous Buddhist Pilgrim as He is known in Thai Art and Literature Assf.Prof.Dr.Sudarat Buntoakul Faculty of Buddhism Abstract The research indicates that Tang Xuanzang was introduced to Thais as a Buddhist pilgrim in the novel Journey to the West, which was published by Printing Press Books in the mid-nineteenth century, although it had been translated into Thai at the beginning of that century. The story became better known to Thais after the advent of television in Thailand in the mid-twentieth century and many versions were broadcast. Illustrations from Journey to the West at Wat Kuti, Petchaburi, Thailand were examined. Representations of Xuanzang and his three protectors appear on the outer wall of the Main Hall, along with illustrations that depict ten incarnations of Gotama Buddha in teak woodcarvings. The artwork clearly shows evidence of Indian and Chinese cultural influences. The temple with these reliefs is today preserved as an archeological site in Thailand. Though the Great Tang Records of the Western Regions is an historical account, it has only been translated into Thai and published recently. Key words: Tang Xuanzang, the Journey to the West, the Great Tang Records on the Western Regions, art, literature, Thailand History of Tang Xuanzang The remarkable pilgrimage to India in the seventh century (629-645) of the Chinese Buddhist monk, Xuanzang, is known worldwide as a major milestone in Chinese and world Buddhist history.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This research examines the circumstances and impacts of the technological transition of Thailand’s television broadcasting industry in the area of national communication policy and TV station business operation. This introduction, that precedes nine chapters, outlines the statement of purpose of the thesis, summarises TV development in Thailand and the main theoretical foci, and explains the objectives and broad premises of the thesis. It outlines the structure of the thesis, including an introduction to the methodology under the appropriate chapter description. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to throw light on the policy context of the digitalisation of the Thai TV industry by seeking the views of members of key groups of stakeholders. In doing so, I will be addressing an area that has not been researched adequately in Thailand to date. Thailand is a particularly apt case to study because it is a developing country that has had a history of being selectively open to exogenous innovation. I chose Thailand’s TV industry as a case study because Thailand is a developing country that is one of the main technology adopters in the Asia Pacific region, and has an open engagement with global technological transition. The country has a vibrant press and an enormous quantum of democratic energy, but also it has experienced an inordinately large number of military coups. The Military continues to have considerable ownership over television stations and assigned control over broadcasting frequencies. The new communication
