Nong Chik in Pattani to Be Developed as Agricultural Industry City (3/1/2017) Regarded as a gateway to other southern border provinces, Nong Chik district in Pattani province will be developed into an agricultural industry city model in a \"Triangle of Stability, Prosperity, and Sustainability. It is suitable for agricultural production, especially rice farming, coconut planting, and coastal fisheries. The population in this district is about 77,000. Around 89 percent of local residents are Muslims and 11 percent are Buddhists. In 2016, a number of local residents joined a pilot crop farming project, known as \"Smart Farm, aimed at encouraging local farmers to grow useful crops to earn a supplementary income. The Smart Farm is also intended to develop unattended land into an area for integrated farming. Aware of the great potential of Nong Chik for agro-industry, the Government is starting a project to develop this district as an agricultural industry city model. Nong Chik is Pattanis important frontline city, linking with trade and industry in Songkhla province. It also serves as a major route for travel to Yala and Narathiwat. From 2017 to 2018, the private sector plans to invest 4,500 million baht in industrial development in Nong Chik, under the \"new agro-industry model. This model focuses on agricultural production in both quality and quantity, under the \"Friendly Farming framework. In the model city project, Nong Chik will develop its agro-industry in response to the needs of the southern border provinces. It will also serve as a major production base for Thailand and the world. Major agro-industry projects to be carried out include livestock, economic crops and energy crops, and fisheries. The project also emphasizes the halal industry, rubber production, and energy development for self- reliance on a sustainable basis. Emphasis is also placed on full-cycle agricultural processing, the establishment of a central market, and the creation of electronic marketing channels that connect with all dimensions of development. One of the strengths of Nong Chik is that it is rich in oil palm. According to the Pattani Chamber of Commerce, palm oil production in local processing plants in Nong Chik accounts for 30 percent of palm oil in the three southern border provinces. The district has great potential for further expansion of oil palm planting areas and the growth of this industry. The Government will issue incentives to promote investment in Nong Chik. The Fourth Army Area Commands Internal Security Operations Command, Forward, is also ready to step up security measures to help in local economic development for the better quality of life of local people. 28/09/2021 Page 1 กรมประชาสัมพันธ์.

And the incidence of the disease is about 2.5-5: 1000 people per year (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 1995, cited in Kankook Sirisathien, 2007). The number of outpatients receiving services from mental health services increased from 1,022,504 in 2009 to 1,055,548 and 1,0912,646 in FY 2010 and 2011, respectively. (Department of Mental Health, 2011). It can be seen that the rate of mental illness is likely to increase. And still a major public health problem. The loss of the economy and resources of the country, while the number of personnel involved, such as psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses and other personnel. There are insufficient resources to drive care for schizophrenic patients at home (Suchitra Nampai, 2005). Schizophrenia is a disorder characterized by emotional, behavioral and perceptual symptoms. The two groups are characterized by positive and negative symptoms. The disease progresses chronically and severely. There are 3 stages. Prodominal phase, active phase, and residual phase (Mannos, Laytrakul, and Pramote Suksanit, 2005). The schizophrenia often not cured. Patients will have chronic disease. Most of the time there is a relapse. They need to be hospitalized periodically. As a result, the family life efficiency of caregivers (caregivers) was significantly declined becayse it takes a long time in caring.

An Analysis of the Role of Civil Society in Building Peace in Ethno-religious Conflict: A Case Study of the Three Southernmost Provinces of Thailand A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science and Public Policy at The University of Waikato by KAYANEE CHOR BOONPUNTH 2015 ii Abstract The ‘Southern Fire’ is an ethno-religious conflict in the southernmost region of Thailand that has claimed thousands of innocent lives since an upsurge in violence in 2004. Although it does not catch the world’s attention as much as other conflict cases in the same region, daily violent incidents are ongoing for more than a decade. The violence in the south has multiple causes including historical concerns, economic marginalisation, political and social issues, religious and cultural differences, educational opportunity inequities, and judicial discrimination.
