Thailand's tourism industry contributed to over three trillion baht in 2019. Tourist attractions across Thailand attract tourists around the world with their natural scenery, lifestyles, and cultures, especially in those called "second-tier cities". Community enterprises play a vital role to drive the tourism industry to local areas. However, most community enterprises lack professional accounting knowledge. This research aims to provide guidelines for ecotourism cost management of community enterprises in Thailand. Participatory Action Research (PAR) was employed to investigate the current circumstances of the Banlaem enterprise by using in-depth interviews to identify problems in cost management. Then, the focus and small group meetings were organized to monitor and evaluate solutions. The results reveal that the cost of VIP-Two Days trip was generating the highest net profit and margin, followed by VIP-One Day trip, but net losses were detected on the Students-One Day trip, even though income was greater than the variable costs, revenues didn't cover fixed costs. Thus, accounting knowledge could be a major concern of these enterprises. They should systematically record revenues and expenses, set appropriate labor costs, reduce production costs by using seasonal seafood and make use of vegetables in their gardens, and price products according to their production costs.

건축 외립면의 색채 디자인은 건축 스타일을 나타내는 중요한 표현이다. 국내에는 '마을예술' 프로젝트가 추진되면서 많은 마을이 관광명소로 자리 잡았으며, 이 때문에 건축색채 디자인을 통하여 주민들의 생활 패턴과 관광객의 관광 수요를 가늠하는 것을 마을 건설의 중점이 된다. 본 논문은 먼저 문헌조사를 통하여 건축물의 사용기능과 외부색채의 향토적 역할을 분석하였으며, 부산 흰여울문화마을을 대상으로 주거건축, 상업건축, 레저구역건축과 공중화장실 등 4종류의 건축물에 대한 현지 고차를 실시하고, KSCA 측색분석시스템, 설문조사를 통하여 건축물 외벽면의 색채계획을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 첫째, 흰여울문화마을의 건축물 외벽면의 주조색이 차지하는 면적은 가장 크게 증가시키며, 전체적인 통일성을 증진시켜 고명도, 저채도 색채의 경향으로 만족시켜야 한다. 둘째, 레저구역은 고채도의 소형 건축물 색채는 시각적 가이드로서의 역할을 할 수 있다. 셋째, 상업 구역와 주거 구역은 색채의 차이가 비교적 크므로서 주조색이 고명도, 고채도, 다색상의 색채범위를 취한다. 넷째, 공중화장실은 주조색은 주거지역, 레저구역의 주조색 범위를 위주로 하여 시각적 안정감을 제공한다.

Shopping is considered a 'must-do' activity for most people on travel. One of the major parts of tourist shopping is the purchasing of souvenirs. Souvenirs are universally associated with tourism as a commercially produced and purchased object to remind the purchaser of the experience. Recently, Korea becomes one of the most popular destinations that many Asian tourists like to visit. Among those Asian tourists, the number of Thai tourists bound for Korea shows an incredible rapid growth. Thai people pick Korea and Seoul as their favorite country and city to visit for three consecutive years since 2009. One of the major reasons why Thais are choosing to tour Korea is the enthusiasm for Korean pop culture. That is, 'Hallyu' has influenced Thais' decision to visit Korea and purchase Korean products. The primary objective of the current research is to explore the shopping experiences of Thai tourists, specifically their souvenir shopping. It adopts a reflexive interpretive approach to bring light to the various meanings Thai tourists attach to the souvenirs they purchase in Korea. In order to accomplish the objective, the individual interviews were conducted. A total of 12 Thais who have experienced traveling in Korea participated in the study. Four themes were identified through interview text analysis. First, the research participants almost always purchase souvenirs in Korea because the souvenirs represent their identities as tourists. Especially, they purchase the souvenirs as gifts for others, including family members, friends, and colleagues. The souvenirs as gifts show love and thanks to others, and they cement the social relationship. However, purchasing souvenirs for others is more like the moral obligations which evoke the psychological stress. Secondly, the research participants feel closer to Korea while shopping souvenirs around. Thirdly, they obtain imaginative experiences and pleasure through souvenirs related to the Korean pop culture. Souvenirs provide them to visually extraordinary experiences. Lastly, souvenirs purchased in Korea act as visible status marker when they go back to Thailand. They show the socioeconomic status and lifestyles. Tourists themselves and others place special value to souvenirs that were purchased out of Thailand. The findings of this study are of both academic and practical importance. Souvenirs are among the most pervasive elements of the travel experience. However, souvenir shopping is the complicated consumer behavior within tourism both from business and social science perspectives. Along the same line, it needs strategic approaches in order to maximize the economy effects. It concludes by suggesting how further research could offer unique insights into how the souvenirs are positioned both in the context of tourism academics and industry.
