The Establishment of Keluarga Pencak Silat in Thailand
During the last 15 years, the Pencak Silat Association of Thailand (PSAT) has been entrusted with the development of pencak silat in the country. The Thai Sport Authority started to support pencak silat activitities since 1987, when Thai athletes participated in the SEA Games in Indonesia. Still in comparison with other self-defence sports, pencak silat remains underdeveloped, and PSAT still has to recruit pesilat from Muay Thai to staff the national team and enrol in national and international competitions.

This plan got the support of the Student Club Ramkamheang University, an organization with 4000 members mostly from Southern Thailand. The Club decided to undertake regular pencak silat training sessions as part of its cultural and social program. PSAT also supported the establishment of the Thai Chapter of KPS Nusantara by organizing a seminar on pencak silat at the Calina Hotel Bangkok. 74 members attended the seminar and elected the board as follows:

Thailand Time and Date Thailand History Back to Top Little is known of the earliest inhabitants of what is now Thailand, but 5,000-year-old archaeological sites in the northeastern part of the nation are believed to contain the oldest demonstrate of rice cultivation and bronze casting in Asia and perhaps in the world. In early historical times, a succession of tribal groups controlled what is now Thailand. The Mon and Khmer peoples accomplished powerful kingdoms that included large areas of the nation. They absorbed from contact with South Asian peoples religious, social, political, and cultural ideas and institutions that later determined the development of Thailand's culture and national identity. In the early decades of the twentieth century, Thailand's political system, armed forces, schools, and economy underwent drastic changes. Many Thai studied overseas, and a small, Western-educated elite with less orthodox ideas emerged. In 1932 a bloodless coup d'etat by military officers and civil servants ended the absolute monarchy and inaugurated Thailand's constitutional era. Progress toward a stable, democratic political system since that time, has been erratic. Politics has been controlled by rival military-bureaucratic cliques headed by powerful generals. These cliques have initiated repeated coups d'etat and have imposed prolonged times of martial law. Parliamentary institutions, as defined by Thailand's fourteen constitutions between 1932 and 1987, and competition among civilian politicians have generally been facades for military governments.

A Stab at Thai History 101
Scott Coates In an ongoing effort study Thai history, I ventured to the first Thai capital of Sukhothai with some family and friends. Located 450km N of Bangkok, Sukhothai was the Thai capital (or Siam, as it was known in the day) from the mid-13th century until mid-15th century. Covering 45 sq km of ruins, Sukhothai Historical Park is one of Thailand’s most celebrated sites, as well as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sukhothai temple architecture is typified by lotus-bud stupas (pointed towers with various shaped bases), with many of the monuments having elephants inlayed in the stupa base. The shear number and beauty of the ruins is staggering. A bicycle provides the perfect way to explore and delve into this history-rich area. Around the middle of the 13th century, King Jayavarman VII brought in Mahayana Buddhism as the main religion in the Kingdom. With this change, Buddha images were enshrined instead of Hindu ones. Shortly after this monumental change, smaller kingdoms and communities in what is now Northern Thailand liberated themselves, came together and established the Sukhothai Kingdom.

History
The Kingdom of Thailand, originally known as Siam, is on the mainland of southeast Asia. Thailand shares its borders with four countries. Myanmar (Burma), on the north and west, has 1,800 kilometers of border with Thailand. The northeast Thailand has 1,754 kilometers of border with Laos. On the southeast it has 803 kilometers with Kampuchea (Thailand). Also, the Gulf of Thailand is on the southeast. In addition, it has 506 kilometers of border with Malaysia on the south. Finally, it borders the Andaman Sea and again Myanmar on the southwest. Thailand covers 198, 115 square miles (513,115 square kilometers), approximately the size of France or the State of Texas, USA. It is rich in culture, history, and natural beauty. It has many fertile rice fields in the large alluvial plain (called the Menam Basin) of the Central Region. The Northeast Region, Isan, is a saucer shaped plateau, Korat Plateau, with the Mekong River on its eastern boundary. This the largest region of the four regions. And, the Southern Region, which is made up of the Malay Peninsula, has the remote jungles, the beaches washed by turquoise waters and the tropical islands bathed in endless sunshine. The country has more visible historical evidence of its past cultures than any other country in Southeast Asia. Its history is very complex with the invasion of many different peoples, the rule of different kings, the establishment of various kingdoms and the interaction of diverse cultures. The Thai history is regarded as having

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THAILAND The early inhabitants of Southeast Asia date back as far as 8,000 BC, and were simple hunter-gatherers. However, a slow southwestwardly migration of Austronesian (Thai, Malaysian, Indonesian) and Austro-Asiatic (Mon, Khmer, Vietnamese) speaking settlers, from China, gradually pushed out the native Australo-Melanesian speaking inhabitants. These new settlers brought with them Chinese agricultural practices based on intensive rice production, so that by about 4,000 BC rice was being cultivated throughout the region, and from about 3,000 BC metalworking started. By the 6 th century AD numerous agricultural based, feudal kingdoms had emerged but were soon enveloped by the westward expansionism of the Khmer rulers of Angkor, in modern day Cambodia.

It is difficult to determine the type of culture which existed in Thailand before the Christian era, since no written records or chronologies exist but archeological excavations in the area north of Nakorn Ratchasima indicate that there were people living here over 4000 years ago. However, by the 6th century AD thriving agricultural communities were established from as far north as Lamphun to Pattani in Southern Thailand . Theravada Buddhism was flourishing, and probably entered the region around the 2nd or 3rd centuries BC when Indian missionaries were said to have been sent to a land called "Suvarnabhumi". (An area comprising Burma, Central Thailand and Cambodia). The Dvaravati period, a loose collection of city states, centred around the Nakhon Pathom area, and lasted until the 11th century when it quickly declined under the political domination of invading Khmers.

Phanom Rung is the original name and is mentioned in stone inscriptions excavated at the area. It is a religious site dedicated to the God Shiva, the supreme Hindu deity. It symbolises Mount Kailasa, the heavenly abode of Shiva. During the 13th century several Thai principalities in the Mekong valley united and took Haripunchai from the Mons and the Sukhothai area from the Khmers. The

Climate

Thailand enjoys a tropical climate with 3 distinct seasons – summer from March through May, rainy with plenty of sunshine from June to September and cool from October through February. The average annual temperature is 28°C (83°F), ranging, in Bangkok, for example, from 30°C in April to 25°C in December. Time Time in Thailand is 7 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT+ 7). History People Throughout her long history, Thailand has gently absorbed immigrants. Many were skilled as writers, painters, sculptors, dancers, musicians and architects, and helped enrich indigenous culture. People inhabiting Thailand today share rich ethnic diversity – – mainly Thai, Mon, Khmer, Laotian, Chinese, Malay, Persian and Indian stock – – with the result that there is no typically Thai physiognomy or physique. There are petite Thais, statuesque Thais, round-faced Thais, dark-skinned Thais and light-skinned Thais. Some 80% of all Thais are connected in some way with agriculture which, in varying degrees, influences and is influenced by the religious ceremonies and festivals that help make Thailand such a distinctive country.

is one of the few countries in the world which has never been colonised. The first independent Thai Kingdom was established in 1238, but the origins of Thailand and the Thai people go back much further.
Pre-History
The central area of Indochina from the Maekhong River valley to the Khorat Plateau was inhabited as far back as 10,000 years. Linguistic scholars can trace origins of ancient Chinese to an earlier Thai language. Archaeology gives us several pointers to early development of the human race in the area. For example, in the Ban Chieng area of north-east Thailand:
Prehistoric tools from the Chiang Saen region of northern Thailand.
Dating from about 3,000 BC these artifacts from Ban Chieng in north-east Thailand.
Ban Chieng bronze musical instruments show a high degree of design sophistication.
Ban Chieng artists and potters were equally accomplished. People dressed well and printed their own silk textiles.
  • Rice may have been cultivated as early as 4,000 BC (China was still largely growing and consuming millet, although evidence does suggest that rice was first cultivated in the Yangtze valley c. 6500 BC)
  • Bronze metallurgy began c. 1700-1500 BC.
