Research Abstract |
Summaies of the study are as follows : (1)As a leading economic giant Japan is urged to make greater commitment for the creation of peaceful world order in the post-Cold War era. Japanese ODA become more important as a tool for international public assistance and another means of international contribution. Japanese ODA should be used for peace, democratization and environment based upon the principles of Japanese ODA. (2)Japanese ODA to Thailand has been playing a significant role in the development of Thailand through building infrastructure and agricultural development. Of course, the development of the Thai economy has been brought about partially by direct investments from abroad, partially by aid from abroad and by the self efforts of Thai people. In the process of Thai development, Japanese ODA directly and indirectly has contributed to direct investment of Japanese companies through building infrastructure. An increase of direct investment has promoted industrialization and urbanization, which in turn required additional ODA. We can see clearly that ODA and direct investment supplement each other. (3)Japanese ODA in the past has centered rather on industrialization and economic development, especially in Bangkok. As a result, we can see mal-development, the economically inequal development between the center and the periphery and the socially increasing gap between the rich and the poor. Moreover there is overcrowding in cities, depopulation in villages, and pollution. Developmentism and commercialism has expanded to rural areas and has destroyed the natural environment and has made farmers poor. Japanese ODA is requested to resolve these problems through NGO.
