Guidelines for Promoting Passenger Tourism at Secondary City Airports in Thailand

Waraphon Klinsreesuk — 2024-04-02

The article 'Guidelines for Promoting Passenger Tourism at Secondary City Airports in Thailand' has the following objectives: to study guidelines for promoting tourism in secondary cities in Thailand from various perspectives. It is found that tourism serves as a significant contributor to Thailand's economy, accounting for 10-20 percent of the GDP, with a notable share of approximately 3 trillion baht predominantly sourced from foreign tourists. However, this income is largely concentrated in a select few primary cities, fostering spatial inequality across only 15 provinces including Bangkok, Chonburi, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and Surat Thani. These cities collectively generate 88 percent of the total tourism revenue. Despite this concentration, the presence of over 55 secondary cities and 21 airports overseen by the Department of Airports, Ministry of Transport, offers potential for wider distribution of tourism-related income.
The airports include: Northern region: Nan Nakhon Airport, Pai Airport, Phitsanulok Airport, Phetchabun Airport, Phrae Airport, Mae Sot Airport, Mae Hong Son Airport, Lampang Airport ,Northeastern region: Nakhon Phanom Airport, Buriram Airport, Roi Et Airport, Udon Thani Airport, Ubon Ratchathani Airport, Sakon Nakhon Airport, Loei Airport ,Southern region: Chumphon Airport, Trang Airport, Nakhon Si Thammarat Airport, Narathiwat Airport, Ranong Airport, Betong Airport, Yala Province These airports cater to a substantial number of travelers annually. In 2022, passenger numbers surpassed 9,735,881, demonstrating a growing trend, further reinforced by a significant increase to over 5,924,591 passengers during the first five months of 2023. This escalating trend is expected to yield substantial economic implications. The Department of Airports has outlined plans for continual airport development spanning 2025-2027, signifying imminent transformation and contributing significantly to tourism promotion efforts in Thailand. The results of the study identified three key travel trends: Cultural Tourism, Natural Tourism, and Health Tourism. They highlight the significant role of secondary city airports in facilitating convenient travel, particularly within provinces possessing their own airports.

Approaches to Reducing the Disparity in Access to Temporary Release

Phanuwat Boonyoung — 2024-04-02

This academic article aims to present approaches to reduce the disparity in access to temporary release by developing electronic monitoring devices for the temporary release of suspects or defendants. This is to address the issue faced by those wearing such electronic monitoring devices who must confront the negative societal perception, represented by the image of wearing a device that is seemingly a symbol of wrongdoing. This is especially concerning when the consideration of the case is not yet concluded and they have not been convicted of any wrongdoing, as it puts them at risk of unemployment which affects their everyday life. Therefore, the development of electronic monitoring devices is important to allow wearers to blend in and live normally in society without feeling alienated. The development concept can be divided into 2 categories: 1) Shape development to make the device smaller, similar to a smartwatch or microchip format to be implanted under the skin. 2) System development using GPS signals or various satellites as well as Geographic Information System (GIS).
