ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute organised the two-day forum – Thailand Forum 2015: Society in Transition from 27 to 28 July 2015.
The two-day forum focused on the developments in Thai politics, society, culture and the economy and their medium- and long-term implications; highlighted the current challenges and prospects in Thailand; and alerted stakeholders and interested parties to issues and areas likely to merit attention in the years ahead.
13 papers were presented on issues ranging from the monarchy, military, electoral violence, regionalism, the media, religion and demographics. Selected papers from this Forum will appear in an edited volume published by ISEAS and is intended to offer a critical perspective on Thailand.
The Forum was attended by over 90 participants, which included members of academia, the business and finance community, diplomatic community, policymakers, civil servants and those interested in the political and socio-economic developments of Thailand.
