  • Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Toys and Games (Distribution Channels)
    3 June 2019 Accessing the ASEAN Consumer Market: Toys and Games (Distribution Channels) Across many ASEAN nations in recent years, the toys and game industry has continued to be affected by the increasing popularity of online shopping. This migration affects some toy categories more than others. E-commerce already dominates the baby and pre-school toys market as parents are the key decision makers in the purchase of these sorts of toys and are inclined to search for these products online to find the best deals. Despite the rise of e-commerce, bricks-and-mortar stores are still the preferred channel for some categories of toys, especially dolls, superhero action figures, board games, and science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) toys. Purchases of these sorts of toys and games are highly driven by children’s choice, and parents like to try them out with their kids before buying them. This kind of shopping activity can enhance the bond between parent and child. Going shopping together for toys is a favourite activity for many families, especially during holiday seasons. Hong Kong toymakers and suppliers eyeing the ASEAN market need to keep aware of developments in both online and offline channels in order not to miss opportunities. Toys and Games Specialist Stores Toys and games specialist stores are a one-stop shop for toys, games, parties and gifts. They remain a preferred option for many ASEAN families shopping for traditional toys for children over three years old – toys such as dolls, action figures, board games and STEM toys. However, older children and teens in ASEAN are becoming increasingly reliant on their smartphones and social media at an early age.

  • A Poem by Sunthorn Phu Author: Sunthorn Phu Translated By: Sawanee Nivasabutr Petchpoom Printing Co
    BOOK REVIEW The Journey to Petchburi: A Poem by Sunthorn Phu Author: Sunthorn Phu Translated By: Sawanee Nivasabutr Petchpoom Printing Co. Ltd., Petchburi, Thailand: 2013 Paperback, 216 pages; ISBN: 978-616-335-347-4 By Absorn Meesing* Overview This work is an English translation from the Thai of the poem titled “Nirat Muang Phet”, or The Journey to Petchburi, written by Sunthorn Phu (1786-1855). Sunthorn Phu is Thailand’s best known royal poet, the People’s Poet of Thailand. For his bicentennial in 1986, he was honored by UNESCO as a great world poet(Tourism Authority of Thailand, Sunthon Phu Monument, retrieved Jan 2016). Critics equate him to Shakespeare and Chaucer in the range, quality, and national importance of his works (Chanpeon, Kenneth, 2003). In schools, Thai students study and recite Sunthorn Phu’s poems, including Phra Abhai mani, which is one of his masterpieces. Despite his honoured literary status among Thais, Sunthorn Phu is virtually unknown outside Thailand because his works have not been translated. Sawanee Nivasabutr started her translation career at the age of 70 after retirement from many years of work at the World Bank in Washington D.C. Her works include translation from English to Thai and from Thai to English in a wide range of genres: novels, short stories, documentaries, academic articles, legal documents (laws), government contracts, poems, and literary works of well-known and/or award-winning authors. She received an outstanding translator award in 2014 from the Translators and Interpreters Association of Thailand (www.thaitiat.org). Sawanee picked “Nirat Muang Phet” (The Journey to Petchburi) with two purposes in mind and two groups of readers, local and international.

This is an overview article of the 2011 qualitative !eld research by the Urban Research Plaza and the Thai Music and Culture Research Unit of Chulalongkorn University to be published in book form under the title Living Local Cultural Sites of Bangkok in 2012. The complete data set will be transformed into a website fortifying Bangkok’s cultural tourism to remedy its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. The !ve areas of cultural activity include the performing arts, rites, sports and recreation, craftsmanship, and the domestic arts. It was discovered that these living local cultural sites mirror the heterogeneity of its residents with their diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. There are local culture clusters of Laotians, Khmers, Mon, Chinese, Islam, Brahman-Hinduism, and Sikhs as well as Westerners. It was also found that the respective culture owners are devoted to preserve their multi-generational heritage. The natural beauty of these cultural sites remains clearly evident and vibrant, even though there remain dif!culties hampering their retention. The mapping of these sites are discussed as well as the issues surrounding those cultural sites that are in danger of extinction due to the absence of successors and other supportive factors necessary for their sustainability.
