Research Abstract

We make a priority on totaling and arranging data of the research this year. The result is as follows (see the interim report).
1.The suburban rural village of Bangkok
High growth rate of economy from 1987-91 caused a speculation in a lot. It is remarkable around the Bangkok metropolitan area. The price of land of the research site where stands 15 km from downtown of the Bangkok came up to more than a million Baht per rai (=0.16ha.) at the beggining of the 90s. The urbanization rushed to the research site. The raise of land price and urbanization have changed enormously an agricultural management and a livelihood of the villagers. Golf course and safari park were made around the village. These changed its landscape and carried a new agricultural management, which was gardening. These also raised an income of villagers.
These radical and rapid change make consciousness and livelihood of the villagers closer to that of the urban inhabitants.
2.The migrant community on the subarban area of Ch … More onburi City
As Chonburi City is one of the center of the Eastern Seaboard Development Project, the labor marker of Chonburi City is expanding. It causes a shortage of labor forces. Therefore many migrants come to Chonburi City seeking for jobs. They lived in this community for more than twenty years. Many of them engage in informal sector. Upper level of wage laborers in this community are, however, apt to be step migrants via Bangkok, and a school career of them are rather higher than the inhabitants who engage in informal sector. Migrants are also apt to live long in this community.
3.The outskirts rural village of Chonburi city
The progress of industrialization of Chonburi Province causes radical change to traditional rice farming villages. The research site has been changing at the begginning of the 90s. The agricultural management has converted from rice farming to fish farming and poultry farming. The large capital of agri-business companies have directory controlled poultry farmers through the village headman who is an agency in the latter. On the contrary farmers have invested and changed paddy fields to ponds in the former. It is impossible to reconvert from pond to paddy field, for the rich surface soil has lost already. But this new agricultural management made this village the first model village of development in the province.
The above is outline of the result. Rapid growth of Thai economy has caused a radical change of three research sites. Less
