INTRODUCTION (1) Project Background The impact of violence in the southernmost provinces of Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat, s is jeopardizing human security and development for people living in the area. In addition to the victims of attacks, local people are indirectly beleaguered by the impact of violence. Residents, of which Malay-Muslims comprise around 80 percent, have to contend with insecurity, disrupted education, and fears generated by the activities of both the insurgents and security forces on a regular basis.

  • ANNEX 1: Climate Risk Profile for Thailand and Project Target Areas
    PIMS 3771 THAILAND SCCF Project - Annexes ANNEX 1: Climate Risk Profile for Thailand and Project Target Areas Location &Climate of Thailand Thailand is located between 5°40’ and 20°30’ N latitudes and 97°20’ and 105°45’ E longitudes in South East Asia. The country borders Myanmar to the north and west, Laos to the northeast, Cambodia to the east and Malaysia to the south. Thailand can be divided into four major natural geographic regions: the mountainous north the arid northeast, comprised mainly by the Korat Plateau the fertile central plains, which include the Chao Phraya River Basin, and the southern peninsula. Thailand’s 2,600 km coastline runs mainly along the Gulf of Thailand (1,660km), with a shorter stretch of coast along the Andaman Sea (950km) on the western side of the southern peninsula. The Gulf of Thailand is relatively shallow and has an area of 30,400km², while the Andaman Sea is much larger and deeper. There are altogether 23 provinces (including Bangkok) along the two coasts, with most bordering the Gulf of Thailand, a few along the Andaman Sea, and a few with borders along both coasts. The proposed project focuses on Thailand’s narrow southern peninsula, which is flanked by the Gulf of Thailand to the east, the Andaman Sea to the west and Malaysia to the south. Thailand’s climate is classified as tropical savannah in the ‘mainland’ and tropical monsoon in the southern peninsula, which experiences a slightly different climate because of its geography and its close proximity to the sea. Across the country there are three main seasons; hot, wet and mild.

    Thailand (11 August 2014– 17 August 2014) Southern Thai insurgents continued their activities this week with a number of bombings in Pattani, Narathiwat and Yala provinces. For the most part, members of the security forces on patrol remain the targets. Terrorism A bomb buried under a tree by a canal near Samakkhi School in Kato village, tambon Patae in Yala’s Yaha district was detonated on 12 August 2014 while volunteer rangers were on patrol. The blast killed Rangers Prakasit Rakhpan and Chatchai Lohithan, and injured Ranger Thawee Faipesat.1 2 On 14 August 2014, two further bomb attacks took place in in Pattani province.

The second bomb was detonated in tambon Talomaena in Thung Yang Daeng district. The bomb was concealed in a fire extinguisher and detonated as a police patrol in a pickup truck passed. Four policemen, Pol Sgt Maj Boonsong Gunnaroj, Pol Sgt Maj Adithep Nookongkaeo, Pol L/C Tasmisi Sani and Pol Sgt Boonrit Bangsri, were injured in the blast and rushed to hospital.3 Another bomb was detonated on 15 August in Narathiwat’s Muang district.

Introduction 1. The present report, which covers the period from January to December 2012, is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 2068 (2012), by which the Council requested me to continue to submit annual reports on the implementation of its resolutions and presidential statements on children and armed conflict. 2. The preparation of the report involved broad consultations within the United Nations, in particular with the Task Force on Children and Armed Conflict, the country task forces on monitoring and reporting, peacekeeping and special political missions, United Nations country teams and non-governmental organizations. It also involved extensive consultations with relevant Member States and regional organizations. 3. In September 2012, Leila Zerrougui took office as my Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict. Building on the work of her predecessors, she will focus on furthering the implementation of the international legal framework and mechanisms in place for the protection of children affected by armed conflict, in particular by strengthening monitoring and reporting on all grave violations against children, increasing support for the implementation of action plans, enhancing cooperation with Member States and regional organizations to strengthen ownership of the agenda, ensuring rapid response in emerging situations to halt and prevent violations against children and developing strategies to put increased pressure on persistent perpetrators.

It assesses whether the overall situation in each case has, during the previous month, significantly deteriorated, significantly improved, or on balance re- mained more or less unchanged. It identifies situations where, in the coming month, there is a risk of new or significantly escalated conflict, or a conflict resolution opportunity (noting that in some instances there may be both). It also summarises Crisis Group’s reports and briefing papers published the previous month. Arrows and alerts: Up, down and side arrows signify, respectively, improved, deteriorated or unchanged situations. Con- flict Risk Alerts (identified with bombs) or Conflict Resolution Opportunities (with doves) are used in addition to arrows: a bomb signifies a risk of escalated violence; a dove an opportunity to advance peace. Both bombs and doves tend to be used where events are moving fast.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There were only three projects of the output 3 that continued to be implemented in the second quarter by two implementing partners including King Prajadhipok’s Institute (KPI) and The Civic Women's Network. The three projects included (1) Social capital survey; (2) Livelihood improvement; and (3) Project documentaries for the promotion of social cohesion and SDGs. King Prajadhipok’s Institute (KPI) is an academic institution had undertaken a social capital survey aiming to find existing social capitals in three sub-districts in Pattani, Yala, and Narathiwat to strengthen Tambon Administrative Organizations (TAOs) in Southern Thailand by sharing information and designing a pattern of participatory processes for development planning and budgeting based on social capital found in their sub-district. The target TAOs were Takae, Napradu, and Porming in Pattani Province. In this quarter, KPI had already finalised their research’s result and produced a social capital report for each TAOs. 12 livelihood improvement projects together with the newly selected projects in Narathiwat had been regularly monitored and visited to ensure that the projects would be continuously improved and developed.

  • La Sang : a Belief and Ritual of Tro Kaen Community Amidst the Unrest Situation of the Southern Thai Border
    7th International Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences “ASEAN 2015: Challenges and Opportunities” (Proceedings) La Sang : A Belief and Ritual of Tro Kaen Community amidst the Unrest Situation of the Southern Thai Border 1. Nootchanart Naulyai, Graduate Student in Human and Social Development, Prince of Songkla University, Hat Yai Campus, [email protected] 2. Kettawa Boonprakarn, Ph.D., Asst. Prof., Department of Educational Foundation, Faculty of Liberal Arts, Prince of Songkla University, Hat Yai Campus, [email protected]. Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate a belief and ritual of La Sang amidst the unrest situation in the Southern Thai border. The study area was Tro Kaen Community, a Buddhist community in the middle of Muslim communities. The data of this phenomenology study were gathered through in-depth interviews with 12 informants, and the data were then categorized, interpreted, concluded, and presented with analytical description. The results of the study revealed that La Sang ritual is held after rice is harvested in either the fifth or sixth lunar month. The purposes of the ritual are to give thanks to Chao Mae Phosop or the Goddess of Rice, who has made their crops abundant, and to enjoy themselves after the harvest. Later modern culture started to flow in and gradually weakened traditional culture; La Sang ritual eventually faded away. Nevertheless, in 2007, a group of elderly people in the community brought back the ritual to unite people in the community, gather their cooperation in conducting their farming occupation, restore their rice farming way of life, and make it a mechanism to cope and negotiate with their fear and pain so as to heal their minds amidst the unrest situation.
