Leadership of a Rice Farmer’s Group in the Salt Intrusion Area, Takhria Sub-District, Ranot District, Songkhla Province Wilaiporn Sengwun1* and Pilaiwan Prapruit1 1Department of Agricultural Development, Faculty of Natural Resources, Prince of Songkla University, Thailand *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The objectives of this research were to 1) analyze the leadership characteristics and behaviors of the leaders of a rice farming groups in the salt intrusion area, and 2) analyze the relationship between leadership characteristics and behaviors of the leaders. The data collection tool used in this research was a structured questionnaire. Its purpose was to allow members of rice farming group and local citizens who were aware of the work of the group leader to evaluate the leader in terms of leadership characteristics and behaviors. Questionnaires were analyzed, with responses arranged into 5 levels according to Likert scale, and behaviors were analyzed according to Blake and Mouton’s Managerial Grid. Results found that, 1) overall leadership characteristics were at a high level ( = 4.13) with the average highest leadership characteristics being the ability to perform tasks ( = 4.30). Physical characteristics came next ( = 4.24), followed풙� by personality characteristics ( = 4.17). An examination of the characteristics showed that풙� the rice farming group leaders possess good풙� human relations skills, with strong effort and풙� patience at the highest level ( = 4.50), and 2) analysis of leader behaviors found that the leaders of the rice farming groups had an average task-oriented behavior score of 5.93, and풙� an averaged relationship- oriented behavior score of 7.47. When comparing these scores with the Blake and Mouton’s Managerial Grid, leaders of rice farming groups have behaviors that emphasized teamwork (6,8). -

Tourism Planning and Destination Marketing: Towards a Community-Driven Approach a Case of Thailand
Tc.urism Planning and Destination Marketing: Towards a Community-Driven Approach A Case of Thailand A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy At Lincoln University By Jutamas (Jantarat) Wisansing Lincoln University 2004 Abstract of a thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Tourism Planning and Destination Marketing: Towards a Community-Driven Approach A Case of Thailand By Jutamas (Jantarat) Wisansing This thesis argues that while analysing markets and developing strategies to exploit the external market place and to attract tourists remains a central focus for tourism marketers, it is not enough on its own to achieve sustainable tourism destination development. The researcher substantiates this argument by exploring the 'participatory tourism planning' concept in detail. Based on this approach, the community is identified as a primary customer for whom tourism marketers have ignored involving in their marketing attention, messages and programmes. The fundamental concept - marketing orientation and customer orientation - combined with emerging marketing theories were reviewed.in order to help examine how destination marketing, a community-driven approach, should be implemented within a destination area. This examination of marketing and community based tourism planning set a platform for this research. This analysis examines relevance, applicability and potential for an integration of these two pervasive approaches for tourism planning. ii Guided by the theoretical examination, an integrated community-based tourism planning and marketing model was proposed. In order to explore gaps between the proposed model and its practicality, three destination areas (Phuket, Samui and Songkla-Hatyai) in Thailand were studied and evaluated. -
Songkhla Provincial Administrative Organization
Songkhla Provincial Administrative Organization Effective Integrated Pre-hospital Emergency Care System Abstract The unpleasant world championship, According to the World Atlas website, about the country with the highest road deaths in the world in 2017, Thailand has moved up to the top of the world. It was found that the death rate was 36.2 cases per 100,000 populations. While government policies have been set up to prevent road accidents, including accident relief measures. The emphasis is on the preparation of the emergency medical service system so that people can access the emergency medical system thoroughly, equally and with standard quality. Therefore, they have set up a notification and dispatch center in every province, using the number 1669 as the emergency notification and emergency number to assist emergency patients in a timely manner. Ther centers will be set up with the hospital in each province. Songkhla Provincial Administrative Organization has created an innovative approach to integrating the new dimension of work in order to help people with illnesses and emergency situations thoroughly and effectively. It was set up as a public service by the local government based on authority and mission that was effectively transferred. This serves the needs of people in all areas, enhances people's quality of life and reduces the rate of loss of life and disability of people in the area. We hope that this innovation will be useful for the development of emergency medical systems for local governments in all areas. More importantly, we would like to thank all the working groups and networking parties involved in driving this innovation. -

In Na Mom, 1-3 iFOB were provided to each individual and colonoscopy was indicated for the participant with double FIT positive. The study proposal was approved by the Hatyai Hospital Ethical Committee (ID 11 (25/03/2015)) and proper treatments were provided to all CRC suspected case. Results: In Hat Yai, 883 participants were recruited and FIT positive was 274 (31.03%) whereas 94 (34.31%) received colonoscopy. We found that 8 (9.06%), 1(1.13%), and 2 (2.27%) were small adenoma, advanced adenoma, and colon cancer. -
