As of today, seven Discovery channels are scheduled to go dark on 30 June, with the newly acquired four-channel Scripps bouquet headed into the abyss at the end of August. Discovery says it has already been for- mally notified by StarHub that its channels are not being renewed. In a response this morning, StarHub didn’t mention any formal notice, saying only that “we are in renewal negotia- tions... and we are doing everything pos- sible to arrive at a deal which would allow Discovery and StarHub to continue our partnership while offering our customers the same content at a reasonable price”. StarHub isn’t coming into this public fight with no firepower, saying it is acquiring fresh content to replace Discovery “in the event that negotiations prove unsuc- cessful”. Several new channels are in the works “to ensure our customers will continue to enjoy access to a good range of educa- tion and lifestyle channels,” StarHub says.

  • 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.
