[ T E a M W O R K ] [ T E A M W O R K ] Working together to always be your2 understanding partner Vision and Mission Vision To be a leading financial service provider with excellence in universal banking capabilities, fostering strong partnerships with customers and focusing in consumers and SME businesses. Mission 1. Build strong relationships with individual consumers and businesses in order to create lasting mutual benefits. 2. Create shareholder value and provide optimal shareholder return. 3. Trust in the capabilities of our employees and provide them with opportunities to develop and capitalize on their creativity and talent, as well as, rewarding them for their achievements. 4. Build a strong financial status and reputation for the Bank by adhering to internationally accepted standards of good corporate governance and transparency and maintaining our status as a good corporate citizen. Message from the Board of Directors Dear Valued Shareholders The year 2007 marked another major milestone for TMB Bank. In December 2007, TMB Bank issued 25,000 million new shares worth 37,622 million baht, with a major portion of the capital increase subscribed by the Netherlands-based ING Bank N.V., one of the 20 largest financial institutions worldwide and the top 10 in Europe. The Bank’s capital base now has been strengthened with Capital Adequacy Ratio of 14.4%, which is on par with other leading banks in the country and well above 8.5% required by the Bank of Thailand. The strategic partnership with ING is expected to help strengthen the Bank’s business especially in retail banking, bancassurance, asset management, and risk management. The successful recapitalization with the new strong strategic partner is credited to the drive and leadership of Mr. Somchainuk Engtrakul, former chairman of the Bank, and other directors at the helm. The Board of Directors would like to express deep gratitude to Mr. Somchainuk Engtrakul and other directors for their important roles in steering the Bank forward firmly into our current position, ready for growth and high performance as expected by the shareholders. The Bank in 2007 posted a net loss of 43,656.69 million baht due to the significant provisioning for loan loss reserves and goodwill impairment to comply with the central bank’s guidelines to prepare for an implementation of the International Accounting Standard 39 (IAS 39), the Bank’s plan to reduce and accelerate divestment of non-performing loans (NPL), the planned higher provision to raise its loan loss reserve ratio to around 70%, in line with other leading banks. In 2007, the Bank, despite the loss, achieved our core strategy in restructuring assets and liabilities by raising the proportion of low cost deposits. This widened the Bank’s net interest margin from 2.1 % in 2006 to 2.4 % in 2007. The Bank’s non- interest income in 2007 also increased from the previous year, notably 39 % improvement from gain on foreign exchange. The achievement illustrated the Bank’s improved core business and benefits from execution of the plan. In 2007 we also have generated momentum with the launch of new products ranging from special deposit account, popular debit cards, and a new platinum credit card, which has helped expand our retail customer base. Our strong cash management service proved popular among our business customers and we targeted to expand the cash management service coverage nationwide. Even though the Bank’s NPL are relatively high after we applied more stringent qualitative loan review in unfavorable economic conditions, the Bank has significantly raised our level of loan loss reserve. Our strong capital base will help expedite NPL problem resolution that has carried over from the economic crisis in 1997 and the merger in 2004. The Bank’s earnings in the next 1-2 years are expected to clearly improve with the recapitalization and ING’s supports. Starting from 2008, all commercial banks are required to adjust themselves to comply with the amended regulations on bank supervision as well as the intensified competition. TMB Bank has set our 2008 strategic focus to strengthen our universal banking platform, build a strong retail banking business, enhance risk management, and align our brand with the targeted market position. Additionally, the Bank has set up joint programs to optimize benefits of collaboration with ING. These programs which cover both business and transformational initiatives will be driven with high priority. The Bank also places high importance on laying a strong foundation for information technology. Known as Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), the new technology enables the Bank to more flexibly offer services, and respond to marketing opportunities. The improved IT infrastructure will support TMB in its aspiration to firmly grow into a leading universal bank from our current position as Thailand’s sixth largest commercial bank with 622.2 billion baht asset and 8 % market share. The Board of Directors would like to deeply thank shareholders for their continued supports and customers for their enduring relationship as the Bank enters into our 51st year. The gratitude is also extended to all staff for their tremendous efforts and dedication to the Bank. We will put in all efforts to move TMB Bank forward as a leading universal bank.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 4 8 1 0 6 - 1346 Abstract The majority of research for this thesis took place during the Thai general election of 1988 when the new religious movements Santi Asoke and Wat Dhammakaya were subject to investigation for political activity despite, respectively, defiance or denial. The relationship between the Thai Sangha and lay devotees is examined in order to discover how it is that Thai monks, whom many researchers find powerless, can be accused of political activity. In the past, monks have been used to legitimate lay political leaders and have taken active roles in local leadership. This thesis aims to determine whether monks in Thailand have power and, if they do, how such power becomes politically threatening to the status quo.

  • Queen Sirikit on Her Majesty's State Visits in 1960 and 1962
    The Journal of the Royal Institute of Thailand Volume IV - 2012 Queen Sirikit on Her Majesty’s State Visits in 1960 and 1962 Pornsan Watanangura1 Abstract The appointment of the two queens to be Queen Regents in Thai history, indicates the confi dence of the incumbent Kings in the ability of their royal consorts. It also highlights a new era for Thai women and their role in society. The accompaniment of Her Majesty, with King Rama IX of Thailand, as the youngest monarchs in the world, on offi cial State Visits in 1960 and 1962, proved to be a new and highly signifi cant infl uence, both on a small country in Southeast Asia, post the crisis of World War II and also on how the country was to be perceived internationally thereafter. The state visits of the twentieth century have some similarities with the state visits made to Europe, for the fi rst time, by King Chulalongkorn in 1897. The royal tours of both Kings took place during a background of political turmoil internationally; in both cases the monarchs, King Chulalongkorn and King Bhumibol, gained tremendous acknowledgement and respect internationally. The visits strengthened the already existing ties between the Siamese Court and some of the leading countries of the Western democratic world. This research paper, beginning from the onset of the fi rst visit to Europe of King Chulalongkorn in 1897, but concentrates on the state visits of Queen Sirikit in 1960 and 1962. It will illustrate the signifi cant impact on diplomatic, political and cultural aspects internationally, at such a critical time.
