This is the Trans Thai-Malaysia project (TTM), an internationally-financed natural gas development scheme. Built to bring gas from offshore fields in the Gulf of Thailand to a separation plant from which it can be distributed to the region, the project is set to form the nucleus of further huge industrial installations, including electricity generating plants and petrochemical factories. In the view of the local rural villagers who have been battling the project for a decade, however, the project has brought only problems: destruction of local livelihoods, despoliation of local land, water and forests, and threats to community and religion. -

Challenging the Thai State Through the Anti-ADB Campaigns
The Thai Social Movements and the Democratization Process: Challenging the Thai State Through the Anti-ADB Campaigns Teresa S. Encarnacion-Tadem During the recent national elections in Thailand, the Thais voted for a new Prime Minister, Thaksin Shinawatra-a prominent businessman and the country's richest person. His family-controlled companies account for more than 13 per cent ofthe Thai stock market's US$30 billion capitalization (Richardson, 2001:6.). The new Prime Minister, however, has carried with him a charge filed by the counter corruption commission during his term as a minister in a previous government (Mydans, 2002: 1). Thaksin could be kicked out within months ofoffice ifthe counter corruption commission could prove to the Thai Constitutional Court that Thaksin tried to conceal his wealth through false asset declarations (Philippine Daily Inquirer, 200l.A6). Such a charge, however, did not seem to deter the Thai electorate from preferring him over the then incumbent Prime Minister Chuan Leekpai, who, ironically, has been dubbed as "Mr. Clean." It was pointed out that after three years of stability under Chuan Leekpai 's Democrat Party-led coalition, the electorate seemed "bored" with the respected but low-key Mr. Chuan who has been Prime Minister for all but two years since democracy was restored in Thailand in 1992. Being "bored" with Chuan, however, was the least of the problems of the Thai people with regard to their previous Prime Minister. More significant was that the Thai people have found Chuan as "unfit" or "unpalatable" to lead the nation. This article looks into the problems which the Thai people had with their former Prime Minister. -

Steadfast in Protest and Social Imbalance and Inequity
Repression of demonstrations, trade union members arrested, NGOs under surveillance: for years these facts have been related to situations of economic Steadfast in protest and social imbalance and inequity. The rise in social discontent linked to the eport 2009 Foreword by Roberto Saviano world economic crisis has increased the repression recorded in recent years. In r inverse proportion to the fall of the stock exchanges, the inflation of freedom- killing practices and laws relating to the control of the social body was one of the significant characteristics of the problems encountered by human rights annual report 2009 nnual defenders in 2008. a “The year we are experiencing is perhaps the one when, because of the crisis, every citizen realises that human rights are a daily requirement […]. Human rights are part of the air we breathe, and giving up knowing, understanding and acting means completely giving up one’s self, other people and giving up the future of what we will be. Let us not forget those women and men who t fight for freedom, equality and justice. Together, we can and must see that MC this fight imprisons no one but sets us all free”. o Roberto Saviano Italian journalist and writer - FIDH The Observatory is a programme of alert, protection and mobilisation set up in 1997 by the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and the World Organisation Against Torture (OMCT). Based on the need for a systematic response by NGOs and the international community to the repression of which human rights defenders are victims, it also aims to break the isolation these activists are faced with. -
Framing the Colours of Thainess: the Emergence of Yellow and Red Thai Identities
FRAMING THE COLOURS OF THAINESS: THE EMERGENCE OF YELLOW AND RED THAI IDENTITIES A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the University of Canterbury by Suthida Pattanasrivichian University of Canterbury 2016 i To my parents, Jim, Na Yai, and Pa O Thank you very much! ii Abstract This thesis explores the movement of the Yellow and Red Shirts in their early periods. Sondhi Limthongkul created the Muang Thai Rai Supda group. This was the initial group of the Yellow Shirts, while the Red Shirts was originally started as the several anti-coup groups. In a successful social movement the leaders need to ensure long lasting support, thus a large number of participants are vital to enlarge and strengthen the movements. To achieve this, framing becomes a significant tool for the leader to select and highlight effective issues and events, and frame them to resonate with their followers and bystanders. In Thai social movements, frames have been employed into many movements, particularly nationalist frames. Four nationalist symbols the king, nation, religion, and democracy/modernization metaframes have become sources of mobilizing frames which stem from these metaframes. To understand social movements in Thailand, the cases of Sondhi Limthongkul and the anti-coup groups were selected for investigation through social movement and framing theories, including the Thai metaframes concept. The questions asked by this research focus on how the metaframes and mobilizing frames of Sondhi Limthongkul and the anti-coup groups were applied, focused on, and adjusted in their early movements. -

PMAC 2012 Conference Book
(2) Prince Mahidol Award The Prince Mahidol Award was established in 1992 to commemorate the 100th birthday anniversary of Prince of Mahidol of Songkla, who is recognized by the Thais as ‘The Father of Modern Medicine and Public Health of Thailand’. His Royal Highness Prince Mahidol of Songkla was born on January 1, 1892, a royal son of Their Majesties King Rama V and Queen Savang Vadhana of Siam. He received his education in England and Germany and earned a commission as a lieutenant in the Imperial German Navy in 1912. In that same year, His Majesty King Rama VI also commissioned him as a lieutenant in the Royal Thai Navy. Prince Mahidol of Songkla had noted, while serving in the Royal Thai Navy, the serious need for improvement in the standards of medical practitioners and public health in Thailand. In undertaking such mission, he decided to study public health at M.I.T. and medicine at Harvard University, U.S.A. Prince Mahidol set in motion a whole range of activities in accordance with his conviction that human resources development at the national level was of utmost importance and his belief that improvement of public health constituted an essential factor in national development. During the fi rst period of his residence at Harvard, Prince Mahidol negotiated and concluded, on behalf of the Royal Thai Government, an agreement with the Rockefeller Foundation on assistance for medical and nursing education in Thailand. One of his primary tasks was to lay a solid foundation for teaching basic sciences which Prince Mahidol pursued through all necessary measures. -
Richard Werly the Bestofthiscountry’Spositivechangesatwork
new Thailand is emerging from decades of tourism success and solid economic growth. Although the Kingdom has recently experienced difficulties, from natural catastrophes to moments of political turmoil, it has managed to retain an unrivalled attraction towards businesses and visitors, while moving upward on the Ainnovation and sustainability ladder. The proliferation of cafés, terraces, galleries and art centers, and also brand new public transport infrastructure, which the Thai govern- ment is eager to expand, have transformed the urban landscapes of Bangkok and Chiang Mai in such a way that both cities are now often referred to as being amongst Asia’s trendiest metropolises. In the countryside, the combination of organic agriculture, community tourism, plus a revival of Thai traditional medicines, are bringing back to life the taste of authentic Thailand. This, while public and private initiatives are flourishing to enhance the respect for the environment, to promote the use of alternative energies, and to THAILAND TRAVEL highlight the country’s best asset: a balanced lifestyle in the midst of the Asian continent’s economic boom. Following the success of Travel Green Thailand, Asieinfo Publishing’s pioneer eco-tourism guidebook, Travel Different Thailand intends to explore these new Siamese alleys, along which international travellers, policymakers and business leaders alike, can experience the best of this country’s positive changes at work. Richard Werly writes on Asia and Europe for the Swiss daily Le Temps (www.letemps.ch). Formerly a correspondent in Bangkok and Brussels, he has travelled extensively in Thailand throughout the last 25 years. He is the author of “Jewelry Treasures of Thailand” (2004) and “Travel Green Thailand” (2009).
