Thailand is a country of native beef cattle resource farming. It has undergone rapid social and economic change in the past decade. Agricultural growth has been maintained by increasing the production of rice and cassava. Changing economic status also provides opportunities for beef cattle producers to meet increasing consumer demand for beef. Finishing beef cattle numbers in Thailand were about 1.0 M head in 2015. Beef produced in Thailand has exclusively been for domestic consumption. Only 1% of Thailand's beef cattle are for the premium market which is based on marbling score, 40% are sold into modern markets that consider muscling of cattle, and the remainder enter traditional markets. Cross-bred cattle for the premium market are raised within intensive systems. Most producers of premium beef are members of beef cooperatives, or have invested in their enterprises at high levels. Culled cow (native or cross-bred cattle) are mainly for small holder farm production. Malaysia, Indonesia, and other members of the Asian Economic Community (AEC) are set to become the largest beef market, which has been confirmed by 2015 through 2020 forecasts for consumption of beef that must increasingly be halal. These circumstances are likely to be challenging for beef producers in Thailand to gain a share of this market. Integration across all sectors involved in beef production in Thailand will be required.

The use of bark cloth, made of the inner bark of certain trees, was widespread along tropical zones from the Africa to the Hawaii encompassing the globe. They include Malaysia, Indonesia, New Guinea, Polynesian Islands and South America. Among them the Hawaiian bark cloth, named Kapa(pronounced as tapa) was rated as the best quality and most admired. It has variety in designs and colors as well as the most sophistcated production methods. The distinct processes of kapa making are composed of two stages. The first is called first beating and it is a preparatory stage to beat the sea-water soaked bast. It was done with a round beater on a stone anvil. The second beating process was carried out with the squared beater and wooden anvil. The strips from the first beating was soaked again in the water and then beaten lightly to break up fibers. The craftmen laid a bundle of strips over the anvil and beat it into pieces of kapa. The second beater of Hawaii was the most characteristic one among bark cloth producing countries. On their surfaces were the engraved patterns, which were creation of theirs. These distinguished designs enabled them to produce the kapa with the thinner and finer texture and an elaboration of impressed designs known as "watermaks". The Hawaiian culture was self-sufficient one : Everything they used was of their own creation until 19th century. Among their inventions of printing designs on kapa are three most important and distinguished processes. They are the overlaying, the cord snapping and the block printing techniques. Their inventiveness as well as self sufficient environment made it possible to develop their fine art of the kapa making. It is said that the mass producing and cheap western technology of loom forced them to gradually abandon their traditional art and as a result this fine and valuable legacy of Hawaiian traditional kapa making technique is all but disappeared. However it is encouraging and heart warming to find that some of the people as well as specialized researchers pined together to form a group to try to reproduce the old kapa and study the traditional art. They consider the kapa as an expression of the ethnic identity with Hawaii's heritage as well as valuable art of human history.

Despite growing interest in Korean foods, South-east Asian consumers' perception and acceptance of Korean foods have not been well elucidated. This study was conducted to understand South-east Asian Muslim consumers' perception and acceptance of Korean foods and the association with their food neophobia level. Ninety-three Muslim consumers (mean ages 25.2, men 35.5%, women 64.5%) from Malaysia (72%), Indonesia (16.1%), and Singapore (11.9%) rated their degree of food neophobia as well as recognition and acceptance of representative Korean menu items. Background data such as duration of stay and Korean food consumption habits were collected. Overall, participants perceived Korean foods positively (4.04 on a 5-point hedonic scale). Most well-recognized Korean foods were gimbap and bulgogi, whereas less-known spicy foods such as ojingoe deopbap were most liked among items that were actually consumed. A neophobic group rated Korean foods less favorably than neutral and neophilic groups (p<0.05). Future studies are required to identify whether or not South-east Asian Muslim consumers' food neophobia is formed under the influence of religious regulations or reflect individual consumers' personal traits.

The water shortage in mega cities in Asia, which face a rapid growth in urban population, is an outstanding problem. It is important, therefore, to accurately estimate the water balance in each city in order to use the limited water resources effectively. In this study, we estimated the potential water resources in し sixteen mega cities in Asia. The target cities were Delhi and Calcutta, India; Colombo, Sri Lanka; Dhaka, Bangladesh; Yangon, Myanmar; Bangkok, Thailand; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; Singapore; Jakarta, Indonesia; Hanoi, Vietnam; Beijing and Hong Kong, the People's Republic of China; Seoul, the People's Republic of Korea; Manila, the Philippines, and Sapporo and Tokyo, Japan. The potential water resources were estimated by subtracting the actual evaporation from the amount of rainfall. The actual evaporation was estimated using the potential evaporation obtained by Hamon's equation which requires the air temperature and the possible hours of sunshine. When the results of Hamon's and Penman's evaporation equations were compared, a considerable error appeared in the low latitude region. The estimation using Hamon's equation was corrected with the linear regression line of Hamon's and Penman's equations. A classification of the land cover was carried out based on satellite photographs of the target cities, and the volume of surface runoff for each city was obtained using the runoff ratios which depended on the land cover. As a result, the potential water resources in the above mega cities in Asia were found to be greater than the world average. However, the actual water resources which are available for one person to use are probably very limited.

Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas require tailored and multidisciplinary treatment and management. However, little is known about how sarcomas are treated and managed throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Materials and Methods: MEDLINE was systematically searched using prespecified criteria. Publications (previous 10 years) that reported tumour characteristics, treatment patterns, survival outcomes, and/or safety outcomes of patients with soft-tissue sarcoma were selected. Exclusion criteria were studies of patients <18 years of age; ${\leq}10$ patients; countries other than Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, or Thailand; >20% benign tumours; sarcomas located in bones or joints; gastrointestinal stromal tumour; Kaposi's sarcoma; or not reporting relevant outcomes. Results: Of the 1,822 publications retrieved, 35 (32 studies) were included. Nearly all patients (98%, 1,992/2,024; 31 studies) were treated with surgery, and more studies used adjuvant radiotherapy than chemotherapy (24 vs 17 studies). Survival outcomes and recurrence rates varied among the studies because of the different histotypes, sites, and disease stages assessed. Only 5 studies reported safety findings. Conclusions: These findings highlight the lack of specific data available about soft-tissue sarcomas in the Asia-Pacific region. Better efforts to understand how the sarcoma is managed and treated will help improve patient outcomes in the region.

1960년대 말부터 주문자생산방식의 섬유산업은 한국의 경제부흥에 크게 이바지하였다. 그러나 1987년대 말 한국의 경제가 발달하고 임금이 급상승되면서 인력난의 문제에 부딪히게 되었고 종전의 공급가격으로 하청주문생산을 공급할 수 없게 되었다. 그 반면, 중국, 인도네시아, 말레이시아 등의 후발개도국들은 세계섬유시장에 급부상하게 되었고, 이로 인하여 한국 텍스타일산업은 종전의 대량생산방식만의 체제를 유지한다면 세계시장에서 경쟁력을 잃게 될 위기에 처하게 되었다. 특히 2005년도 세계섬유시장의 완전개방시대를 맞아 한국의 섬유업계는 선진산업형태로 구조조정을 하지 않을 수 없게 되었다. 즉, 주문자 생산방식에서 생산자기획방식으로의 기업체제를 전환하여, 고임 금으로 인한 고가격에 팔릴 수 있는 제품을 생산하여 세계시장에 도전해야만 하는 상황에 처해있다. 그 목적을 달성하기 위해서는 고부가가치성을 텍스타일제품에 부여해야만 하는데 고부가가치성은 신소재, 기능성 신소재, 가공기술 개발, 자동화 시설도입, 자연 친화적인 염료개발, 마케팅분석, 제품의 기획력 및 디자인개발 등의 다양한 측면에서 부각된다. 본 연구는 그 중 디자인개발의 중요성을 연구하여 선진화방안을 제시하고자 한다.

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations(ASEAN) has been the most essential organization in Asia. In spite of the world economic crisis, Southeast Asian countries have shown fast economic growth since 2000, and they have been actively expanding investments and trades especially with major countries. Research on competitiveness in ASEAN market has spawned an increasingly large literature, but empirical research on the determinants of Korea's export to ASEAN is limited. The purpose of this study is to draw out the determinant of Korean fisheries export to ASEAN by carrying out a panel analysis. For achieving such a purpose, pooled OLS, Hausman Test, Fixed Effect, Random Effect are performed. The last 20 years' data over the period of 1995 to 2014 concentrated on the ASEAN 6 countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippine, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam is used in this study. Amount of aquatic products export to ASEAN is used as the dependent variable; real exchange rate, real GDP, relative price level and GDP per capita are used as the explanatory variables and FTA as dummy variable. Empirical results show that fixed-effect analysis is the best model among all the models. As the fixed effect model shows, real exchange rate, real GDP, GDP per capita and dummy variable(FTA) play positive and statistically significant roles in fisheries export to ASEAN, while price variable plays a negative and statistically significant role to the dependent variable.

본 연구는 한 ASEAN FTA의 교역효과를 살펴보기 위해 패널분석을 실시하였다. Panel Unit Root Test, Panel Cointegration Test, Pooled OLS, Hausman Test, Fixed Effect, Random Effect를 살펴보았다. 분석자료는 ASEAN회원국 10개국 중 우리나라와 교역규모가 적은 브루나이, 라오스, 미얀마, 캄보디아 4개국은 제외하고, 인도네시아, 말레이시아, 필리핀, 싱가포르, 타이, 베트남 등 6개국의 1997년부터 20011년까지 15년간의 년간 자료를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 시사점은 우리 정부는 세계적인 FTA 확산추세에 대응하고 안정적인 해외시장 확보를 통한 경쟁력을 강화하기 위해서 FTA 체결 효과를 극대화할 필요가 있다. 또한 WTO의 상품과 서비스관련 규정에 일치하는 높은 수준의 FTA 체결을 지향함으로써 다자주의를 보완하고, FTA를 통해 국내제도의 개선 및 선진화까지를 도모할 필요가 있다. 이 모든 노력에도 불구하고 FTA가 성공적으로 추진되기 위해서는 무엇보다도 FTA의 추진에 따른 교역 증진 효과를 분석하여 FTA 추진과정의 투명성을 제고하고, FTA 추진과정에서 전문가의 의견을 최대한 반영할 필요가 있다.

지난 수년간 아시아 주요공항들은 지속적으로 늘어나는 항공수요로 인해 혼잡과 지연현상이 가중된 상태에서 공항을 운영 해왔다. 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 우리나라를 비롯한 중국, 일본, 태국, 말레이시아, 인도네시아 등의 국가들은 기존 시설을 확장하거나 신공항을 계획·건설하게 되었다. 신공항을 건설할 경우, 기존공항에 대한 활용문제가 중요한 이슈로 나타나게 된다. 일부 공항들은 국내선 전용공항으로 기능자체를 축소하여 운영하는 경우와 공항과는 전혀 상관없는 타 용도로 완전히 변경하는 경우도 있었다. 타 용도로 완전하게 기능을 변경하거나 공항기능 자체가 축소되어 많은 유휴시설이 발생할 경우에는 이에 대한 체계적인 활용방안이 수립되어야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 공항의 유휴시설에 대한 효율적인 활용방안을 평가하는 방법론을 정립·적용코자 하였다. 평가의 대상공항으로 김포국제공항을 선정하였으며, 평가방법은 서로 다른 이해집단인 여객, 공항전문가, 지역사회주민들의 의견을 물어 이를 퍼지언어변수로 분석하는 방식을 채택하였다. 설문조사는 대상자를 직접 면담하는 방식을 취했으며, 설문조사 결과를 바탕으로 14개의 유치시설 및 기능으로 활용대안을 설정한 뒤, 이들을 수익성, 연계성, 사회성, 공간성, 공익성 등과 같은 기준에 따라 평가하였다. 평가결과에 따르면 전자게임랜드, 쇼핑몰·대형할인점, 비즈니스 사무공간, 먹거리 타운, 시네마 타운 등이 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
