Background Padaeng Industry was established on April 10, 1981 with the original registered capital of Bt 20 million invested by Thai public (Ministry of Finance) and private investors and private company from Belgium. The company has since engaged in mining and refinery business with the objective to produce zinc metal and zinc alloys to serve the demand of our customers. The companyûs mine is located in Mae Sot district, Tak province, the zinc smelter is located in Muang district of the same province and the roaster plant is located in Rayong. The company also has engaged in zinc ore exploration programs both in Thailand and in neighboring countries. The company was listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand on July 21, 1987 and was converted into a public company limited on February 4, 1994. In 1996, the company increased its registered capital to Bt 2,260 million which was fully paid in 2000. 2 Mr. Arsa Sarasin Mr. Bernard Tonnon Chairman of the Board Managing Director Padaeng Industry Public Company Limited Message from the Board of Directors After the excellent profit booked in 2005, we are proud to book once again a very good result for 2006, a year that will remain in the company history as one of the best ever. In 2006, the sustained demand for zinc largely exceeded metal production as producers were unable to increase production partly due to mine capacity restrictions. This structural deficit raised the interest of the financial world and the zinc price rose to historical levels. The company benefited greatly from those rather unexpected market conditions even though the margin was unfortunately limited from the start by a shortage of raw materials and by the forward sales locked in at a time that the zinc price growth was still uncertain. We believe that although the structural deficit of zinc will partially ease in the near future and the volatility of the price will remain, the prospects for the zinc business remain very good for the coming year. The increased focus of investors on the metal sector, the volatility and the lack of clarity of the metal price evolution have clearly increased the need for a better understanding of the drivers of our business. To meet that expectation, the company has reviewed all communication channels and will continue to improve them to offer frequent, open and clear 3 information to shareholders, investors and the society as a whole We did not fail to notice that, in the last quarter of 2006, the zinc price had reached levels where it affected the customers who were not always able to bear the increased cost. The company took care of accommodating the difficult situation of its customers while coping at the same time with a further reduction in import duty that passed almost unnoticed due to the metal price hike. On the social side, having a commitment to the community as core company value, we cannot ignore the problems faced by the communities close to our facilities. Finding an alternative to rice growing in the valleys close to the mine of Mae Sot remained a permanent concern in 2006. The company linked with all local stakeholders to study sustainable alternatives and eventually decided to invest directly in an industrial joint venture that will produce ethanol from locally produced sugar cane. We are confident that this project will benefit the communities around Mae Sot long after the mine depletion. Last but not least, we entered in the practical phase of the renewal process of the main mining lease of the Mae Sot mine. This long and complex administrative process is due to be completed by end of 2007. We are now looking forward to a positive conclusion that will allow us to focus all our energy on the further growth of the company. In the meantime, the mine resources have been reassessed and confirmed. Reserves are being reviewed as well but should be sufficient for another 8 years of operation giving us the time to bank on the intensive exploration program the company has launched in both Thailand and Laos in order to develop other supply lines for the smelter. Overall, 2006 has been a very intense year on many aspects and was crowned by a remarkable profit that gives us the financial strength to prepare for future developments without any hurdle. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we wish to thank our shareholders, for their continued support and to extend our gratitude to all the employees of the company for their commitment.

Demand rose, especially in China, which turned to be an importer of zinc, as well as in India and Europe. It is expected that the sustaining consumption from these three areas would drive the world zinc demand in 2007 reaching 11.35 million tons, an increase of 2.6%. The LME zinc price has seen continuous growth from 2005 to its peak at US$ 4,619 per ton during the fourth quarter of 2006, hitting a 16-year record high. Average zinc price stood at US$ 3,275 per ton, an increase of US$ 1,893 6 from 2005 as a result of falling metal stock, shortage of concentrates forcing some refineries to reduce production, and increasing interest in commodities by investment funds and speculators. Zinc sales volumes The local economy could be characterized as gloomy, hit by several negative factors including rising oil price and interest rate, higher raw material cost, political issues, flooding, loss of foreign investors after new measures of Bank of Thailand, export loss from strong Thai Baht, and the violence in the South. As a result, zinc related industries, i.e. sheet galvanizing, pipe galvanizing and brass showed a slowdown in growth as well. After a good start in the first quarter the local zinc consumption slowed down to collapse in last quarter amidst a booming demand everywhere else in the world. On a year basis the local consumption increased a mere 1.6% from 2005 to approximately 114,971 tons.

They hardly access and/or being accessed to HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment services by health service providers both non-government organizations (NGOs) and government agencies since they are “hard-to-reach population”. Methods: This study was conducted for assessing HIV/AIDS preventive practice among MFSW in Mae Sot district. A structured interview questionnaire was used to collect the data from 120 Myanmar female sex workers, aged 18 years old and above who worked in different prostitution businesses in Mae Sot during 21 October-4 November 2016. Results: More than half (57%) of MFSW were unregistered migrant workers. More than 60% of them had regular partners, including husbands/spouses, boyfriends or lovers, and15% of them also had both husband and boyfriend at the same time. Crucially, only 37% of them revealed that their regular partners knew about their prostitution works. A significant barrier to accessing HIV blood testing was the fear of arrest by the police officers which was about 40%. For HIV/AIDS preventive practice, the majority or 60% of MFSW had moderate level while 22% and 18% of them had good preventive practice and poor preventive practice, respectively.

The group understands problems better, is more trustworthy, and more able to solve problems than other groups that also help laborers. The influx of “cheap labor” and “illegal laborers” has caused chronic problems for Thai society and the laborers themselves at the individual, local and national levels. The problems have not been seriously addressed and the laborers themselves have become “the problems” that cause many difficulties in racial bias which in turn leads to inappropriate solutions to the problems and hence the real causes of the problems have not been overlooked. “Flowers of the Dawn” is a group of mediators and facilitators of social justice that targets transnational laborers fleeing from Myanmar and those who have been in Mae Sot and nearby areas.

Objective: The present report carried out a survey in 2004 to determine urinary cadmium, a good index of excessive cadmium exposure and body burden, among the exposed residents aged 15 years and older in these contaminated areas. Material and Method: Morning urine samples were collected from the subjects and then kept frozen until cadmium analysis. Urinary cadmium was determined using the atomic absorption spectrometry and urinary creatinine was determined using a method of reaction with picric acid at alkaline pH and colorimetry. Results: Of the 7,697 persons surveyed, only 45.6% had urinary cadmium levels < 2 µg/g creatinine. About 4.9% were between 5 and 10 µg/g creatinine and 2.3% had cadmium concentrations > 10. The urinary cadmium level was greater among women than men and increased with increasing age. Smokers were more likely to have high urinary cadmium than non-smokers. Persons who mainly consumed rice grown locally in the contaminated areas had higher urinary cadmium than those who did not.

    Keeping It Alive: Mapping Bangkok’s Diverse Living Culture Bussakorn Binson+ Pattara Komkam++ Pornprapit Phaosavadi+++ and Kumkom Pornprasit++++ (Thailand) Abstract This research project maps Bangkok’s living local culture sites while exploring, compiling and analyzing the relevant data from all 50 districts. This is an overview article of the 2011 qualitative !eld research by the Urban Research Plaza and the Thai Music and Culture Research Unit of Chulalongkorn University to be published in book form under the title Living Local Cultural Sites of Bangkok in 2012. The complete data set will be transformed into a website fortifying Bangkok’s cultural tourism to remedy its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. The !ve areas of cultural activity include the performing arts, rites, sports and recreation, craftsmanship, and the domestic arts. It was discovered that these living local cultural sites mirror the heterogeneity of its residents with their diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. There are local culture clusters of Laotians, Khmers, Mon, Chinese, Islam, Brahman-Hinduism, and Sikhs as well as Westerners. It was also found that the respective culture owners are devoted to preserve their multi-generational heritage. The natural beauty of these cultural sites remains clearly evident and vibrant, even though there remain dif!culties hampering their retention. The mapping of these sites are discussed as well as the issues surrounding those cultural sites that are in danger of extinction due to the absence of successors and other supportive factors necessary for their sustainability.

With a ninety percent Buddhist population, Thailand has been built around the principles of Dharma. These principles have traditionally been taught to the local community by temples, through a variety of different activities. Recently, however, Thai society has adopted an increasing number of Western cultural features that have caused the importance of traditional Buddhist activities to decline. This research tries to understand the reasons for the decline of community interest in local Buddhist activities in Bangkok, so to propose a model for the organization of such activities and ensure that they are not lost to future generations. Keywords: Buddhism, temple, activity, culture, society, organization, development 1. Introduction Buddhism originated in India two thousand five hundred years ago at a time of many religions and doctrines. Each of these religions and doctrines had ancient foundations of belief, making it extremely difficult for Buddhism to occur.
