An Adaptation Of Traditional Beliefs To Buddhism : A Study Of Lan Xang Literature, Sukanya Suchxaya
An Adaptation Of Traditional Beliefs To Buddhism : A Study Of Lan Xang Literature, Sukanya Suchxaya
Asian Review
The purpose of this article is to study the adaptation of the Tai- Lao people's traditional beliefs to Buddhism. The study is based on 5 important Lan Xang literary works, namely Khun Bourom , Thao Ba Jueng , Phaya Khankhak , Khu Lu- Nang Oua and Pha Daeng - Nang Ai. The result of the study reveals that these works are traditionally oral tales of the Tai-Laos people, which were composed in written form only after the reign of King Vixul of the Lan Xang Kingdom ( A.D.1500- 1520). It is supposed that most of the poet authors were Buddhist …
Religious Contacts Between Sri Lanka And Thailand From The Pre-Colonial Period Tothe Colonial Period, Piyanart Bunnag
Religious Contacts Between Sri Lanka And Thailand From The Pre-Colonial Period Tothe Colonial Period, Piyanart Bunnag
Asian Review
Religious contacts between Sri Lanka and Thailand began during the pre-colonial period in the late thirteenth century up until the colonial period in the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries as each country conducted its relationship with the other on a reciprocal basis . Sri Lanka, as the first giver of Theravada Buddhism to Thailand, had a cultural influence on Thailand in terms of Buddhism. However, Thailand was able to harmoniously integrate Sri Lanka's influences with traditional Thai culture. Later on, Thailand had a chance "to repay her debt" to Sri Lanka by reviving the declining Buddhism in Sri Lanka …

The Portuguese In Siam And Pegu, Suthachai Yimprasert
Asian Review
After the Portuguese conquest of Melaka, the Portuguese official contact with the kingdoms of Siam and Pegu followed. Then the official relations between Melaka and Siam and Pegu were established. After this, the Portuguese came to stay in the main ports in the region, such as Ayuthaya, Pattani, Mergui, Martaban, and Pegu. However, their activities in this region suggested that they were freelance warriors fighting for fortune. Their communities were unofficial, independent from the State of India in Goa. These Portuguese became not only traders but also mercenaries and advisers in the Siamese army for using cannons and guns. In …

Western Mercantile Organization In The Early Twentieth Century Penang: An Examination Of The Chamber Of Commerce's Records, Chuleeporn Virunha
Asian Review
This paper examines changes which occurred within the Penang western mercantile community during the early twentieth century through an examination of its official organ, the Penang Chamber of Commerce. Through the Chamber of Commerce's records, the history of this organization, its memberships and components, and most importantly, the western mercantile views on business and Penangs affairs, are delineated. The focus is on underlying conflicts between the local and metropolitan-based trading firms operating in Penang and whether or not the differences, if any, affected the Chamber of Commerce's performance as a pressure group. Our examination of the Penang Chamber of Commerce's …

Civil Society Amidst Traditional Public And Private Sectors: Their Interactions And Roles In The Thai Public Policy Process, Pisanu Sangiampongsa
Civil Society Amidst Traditional Public And Private Sectors: Their Interactions And Roles In The Thai Public Policy Process, Pisanu Sangiampongsa
Asian Review
It is widely believed that the civil society will help lead to good governance in Thailand. This idea is not far-fetched. In the discussion of civil society, the two traditional sectors-the public and private-are first examined with respect to their roles in the public policy process and in the economy. Despite various benefits of both public and private sectors on the society and economy, failures in both sectors sometimes occur. The civil society is put forward as an alternative, third, or people's sector to compensate for the state and market failures. In the case of Thailand, the prevalence of corruption, …

A Practice Approach To The Japanese Company : Loyalty, Harmony And Incentives, Kyonosuke Hirai
A Practice Approach To The Japanese Company : Loyalty, Harmony And Incentives, Kyonosuke Hirai
Asian Review
A number of books on the Japanese society published since the Sixties considered the Japanese collectiveness as the source of Japan's economic success. Drawing on the work of Pierre Bourdieu, the paper shows that harmony and loyalty in the large Japanese company, which they emphasised as symbols of the collectiveness, indicate only an ideological picture of Japanese society, and, in reality, employees consciously or unconsciously attempt to improve their positions in terms of accumulating symbolic capital in daily activities. The paper relies largely on the author's own experience in a large Japanese company between 1988 and 1990.
