Motivations to become a professional footballer

2023-10-09T14:27:57+07:00

Motivation is a process in which a person is stimulated by a stimulus to act or strive to achieve a certain purpose. Whilst several aspire to become professional football players, several youth experience and devote themselves on a journey to become a professional footballer, however, studies suggest that only 180 of the 1.5 million young people across England are able to annually succeed and embark on a career as a professional footballer. The ability for a well-trained youth to prosper in an English Premier League club is only 0.012 percent, which reflects the problems and obstacles of progressing from being an academy footballer to a full-fledged professional footballer. In the context of Thailand, the Professional Sports Promotion Act of 2013 states that professional sports, are sporting disciplines that have organized, systematic competitions according to international standards and provide financial rewards in the form of renumeration or contractual salaries for its athletes. Based on this research, there are two main types of motivation, including physical and social motivation. Furthermore, these types of motivation for athletes can be categorized into internal motivation or external motivation. In addition, it can be seen that motivation and goals in life—achievement motivation—are important factors in learning because achievement motivation is the motivation that makes a person determined to strive to succeed. These motivations and goals are the basis that sport psychology scholars have used as a basic theory for understanding and studying the factors that affect the success of athletes during their emergence as football players. The results from this research suggest together with the motivation to succeed, mental strength is of equal importance. As the study reveals, it is the ability for the athlete to control him/herself, adapt to social situations, ability to solve problems, and most importantly, mental strength helps athletes to control pressure, motivates athletes to push beyond their own physical limits, and helps athletes understand the role of compassion, caring for others and respecting the individual rights of others.

Guidelines for enforcing laws regarding sexual harassment

2023-07-24T18:11:38+07:00

Sexual harassment is increasing in Thai society and many other countries, affecting daily life and work responsibilities. It takes various forms, including visual harassment, verbal harassment, physical harassment through touching, and online harassment. There are multiple versions of laws aimed at addressing such offenses, but enforcing these laws is challenging due to insufficient evidence to convince the court of the offender's guilt. This stems from the limitations faced by the victims in accessing the justice process. There is also a lack of preparedness among personnel involved in the investigation, and foreign labor groups face obstacles in accessing language assistance. Cases of sexual harassment that do not reach the level of rape or coercion are often considered minor, and the punishment does not serve as a deterrent. It is necessary to further amend the laws to have appropriate penalties for such offenses. However, if the laws are not amended, it is important to consider sentencing according to the existing applicable laws, such as imposing imprisonment without waiting for criminal sentences or considering both imprisonment and fines. This is to compensate the victims and create a sense of fear and deterrence, so that individuals are less likely to commit such offenses again. This can be another way to address the issue of sexual harassment.

Constitutional Court decisions bind parties involved in particular cases and extend a binding effect to different state bodies, including the public prosecution organization. This raises the question to what extent public prosecutors are obligated by Constitutional Court decisions when proceeding with criminal cases. Or if a constitutional case involves factual issues related to criminal cases, and the Constitutional Court has rendered decisions, to what extent are prosecutors bound by them? This article examines implications of Constitutional Court decisions on listening to facts in criminal cases of the public prosecutor, by studying principles, court judgments, and other relevant documents in Thailand, and comparing them with practices in the United States of America (US), Germany, and France. The goal is to formulate recommendations for prosecutorial conduct.

Studying prosecutorial practice in the US, Germany, and France indicated that Supreme Court judgments, Federal Constitutional Court decisions, and Constitutional Council decisions in factual issues are indecisively binding on prosecutors. Prosecutors might consider different facts in criminal cases compared to constitutional cases, if different pieces of evidence or witnesses exist. In addition, prosecutors in the aforementioned countries have clear guidelines aimed at truth seeking in cases.

Therefore, the public prosecution organization should clarify related regulations to boost protection of civil liberties.

Legal Measures Concerning Technology Transfer for Industrial Development

2024-07-19T15:05:21+07:00

Thailand adopts economic liberalization in hopes of receiving technology through foreign investment and technology transactions. Nevertheless, Thai personnel do not sufficiently benefit from technology transfer, comparing to the benefits that foreigners reap from Thailand’s resources. Furthermore, Thailand still lacks a concrete regulatory framework for technology transfer.

China, Japan and Vietnam are under binding commitments as World Trade Organization’s members, but these three countries can set clear regulatory frameworks for technology transfer. Since China and Japan put the antimonopoly rules in the field of intellectual property into effect, which prevent the abuse of intellectual property rights, and lead to the balance of intellectual property protection and fair technology transfer. While Vietnam collects and systematically organizes the regulations concerning technology transfer into a single law.

The researcher proposes that the antimonopoly rules in the field of intellectual property and regulations concerning technology transfer should be codified into a model law, in a manner consistent with World Trade Organization’s regulations. This clear regulatory framework will eventually result in the fair transfer of technology and industrial development.
