All teachers have a degree and teacher training. However, the general level of teaching here is very poor compared to the west. Often it is by rote (aka Victorian methods) and no concern is given to students who ignore the lesson. Copying is not merely rife, but a stapple of many students. Due to face problems there is often cheating - with teachers giving the answers on request or students resitting the same exam time and time again until they get it right - during exams and students pass exams that they would not be able to given real invigilation.

Yes, the recent advent of transsexualism as an accepted lifestyle choice has had an affect on the reproduction rate in Thailand. In 1971 the United Nations, operating through the UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund) began an aggressive program in Thailand aimed at reducing the population of that nation.

Their motive for implementing such a program was stated as: Thailand, being a country with a nationalistic culture, is at risk of exhausting their natural resources, and thus is likely to engage in militaristic campaigns aimed at expanding their access to resources and expanding their territory in search of "living space" if their population was to continue to grow at the rate it was growing. They were concerned with the high number of males that would be coming of military age at the same time. (this is a very abbreviated explanation of intent, the UN has myriad other reasons for implementing population control in Thailand, which they do not disclose).

According to the U.N. prior to 1970, the average Thai family had no less than 9 children. (I don't buy this statistic) Currently the average replacement rate is .65 child per female, and 1.30 children per theoretical couple.

The U.N. program in Thailand is viewed as one of their most effective population programs.

Methods used to reduce the reproduction rates in Thailand are vast, and dovetail with other social and economic programs implemented by the IMF and World Bank. Tourism was established as the primary economic driver of the country, with the intention of undermining traditional families, by drawing off many of the young females from rural village, were the majority of the population growth was occurring, and provide alternative lifestyles & workplaces for them, which were not conducive to their marrying and having a traditional large family, or having children at all. Women who were encouraged to move to resort areas could then be under the care and supervision of UN and NGO funded clinics which could better implement their "Reproductive Health" initiatives, which include forced abortion, and sterilization.

The strategy used for the male portion of the population was to promote homosexual, or transsexual lifestyles. This strategy also provided the means for young males to leave their rural villages, by providing them with the ability to earn relatively large sums of money as prostitutes in the resorts. The planners realized that the market for homosexual prostitutes in resort areas is inherently limited, and sought to increase the male participation in the sex tourism trade by expanding their alternative lifestyle choices to include transsexualism.

Each male that is induced to leave his home village in pursuit of a life as a homosexual, or transsexual prostitute reduces the future birth rate. The same can be said of each female who leaves the home village in pursuit of a life as a prostitute in the resort areas.

Or course these young people don't view their choices as such. The UN program utilized clever propaganda to make the choice to leave the village for the resort seem like the best choice available to the young villager.

The government makes transportation to the resorts simple, and available to all. There are no social restraints in place discouraging this behavior. The system is designed to facilitate a young persons choice to become a prostitute, or transsexual, and they are rewarded in many ways for doing so.

Other countries that are not engaged in such programs have negative social, legal, and financial consequences for such behavior, which prevents many individuals from participating.

In order to promote transsexual behavior, the government in Thailand has removed any stigmas which would discourage homosexual, or transsexual lifestyles. Schools have 3 bathrooms, boys, girls, and transsexuals. Every possible concession has been made to facilitate transsexuals, and to prevent any possible discrimination against them. They are portrayed positively in the media.

The phenomenon of the sudden appearance of a massive number of "lady boys" in Thailand over a very short period of time may correspond with the introduction of several different types of hormone mimicking substances in the villages. The appearance of plastic water bottles containing substances proven to be analogues of estrogen, with all the feminizing affects of estrogen, corresponds with the sudden appearance of feminized men and "lady boys".

Researchers are currently investigating several other sources of estrogen-like substances which could explain the sudden and dramatic rise in male to female transsexualism, which has a definite biological component.

To answer your question: The transsexual population in Thailand will not replace their numbers. They will negatively affect the reproduction rate in Thailand, and this is a very significant social problem the country absolutely needs to deal with.

Unfortunately the IMF and the World Bank engage in financial blackmail and require the country to implement these social programs in order to be in compliance with the terms of their loan agreements. Each loan initiated by the IMF has strict contractual obligations by which the borrower is bound. These obligations include the continued implementation of UN population control programs.

The personal qualities of the teacher in the country of Thailand is much the same as in any other country. The most important personal quality is patience.

Thailand is famous for its hand made interior decor, and wall art is no different. Kalaga's are wall tapestries, made from sequins, beads and lined with Thai silk and raised to add a 3-dimension design experience.

Kalaga's are usually designed around 3 main areas:

Elephants

Zodiac Sign

Flowers

Other Designs:

Dragon's

Tigers

Horses

The distance between the two places is 2327 miles.

This is an approximate direct (straight line) distance. During actual travel, this distance may change if a different flight route is chosen.

The temperature will always vary in Bangkok, and since this answer would change like a 'digital clock', please view the link below for the temperature in Bangkok which will always give you the current temperature.

The flight distance from Thailand to Australia is approximately 3,640 miles or this can be converted to around 5,858 kilometres.

When companices(TNC's) locate to Thailand there is...

1)Investment into the local community etc by TNC's such as Toyota, leading to growth of economy. Therefore more money into new roads(transport eg motorway connections) and communications, hospitals etc.

2) Technology and knowledge increases as TNC's bring skills and equipment from MEDC's into LEDC Thailand educating and providing more oppurtunities for local work forces.

3) Employment. High unemployment can be tackled when large companies locate their factories into these areas. People willing to work long hours for low pay in bad conditions so suit both partys, although there is always the issue of exploitation.

4) growth- 'multiplier effect'. As Thailand begins to be targeted by industries/companies...other ones see benefits and follow. Use eachothers ideas etc. Increases employment, economy, etc(other points) all benefitting Thailand

5) Environment and safety may improve as comapnies bring regulations and technology from MEDCS where working guidlines are far stricter. Better conditions.

Hope this is helpful, have just learnt about it so positive it is correct...

Bangkok City is the capital city of Thailand. In addition, it is also the most populous city of Thailand, and is a popular vacation spot for many tourists.

PTT Thailand Open was created in 2003.

The fertile floodplain and tropical monsoon climate, ideally suited to wet-rice (tham na) cultivation, attracted settlers to this central area over to the marginal uplands and the highlands of the northern region or the Khorat Plateau to the northeast.By the 11th century AD, a number of loosely connected rice-growing and trading states flourished in the upper Chao Phraya Valley. They broke free from domination of the Khmer Empire, but from the middle of the 14th century gradually came under the control of the Ayutthaya kingdom at the southern extremity of the floodplain.
