Poblete, Leon, and Elin Grimsholm. "Internal and External factors hampering SME growth : a qualitative case study of SMEs in Thailand." Thesis, Gotland University, Institutionen för humaniora och samhällsvetenskap, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hgo:diva-529.
Full textSmall and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Thailand are very important to economic growth and considerably essential to generate employment as in many other developing countries. SMEs account for 99.5% of the overall enterprises in Thailand while their contribution to the overall employment account for around 76% of all jobs. However, SMEs growth rate is still at a low level. Hence, this is qualitative study of the external and internal factors hampering the growth of SMEs in Thailand. Regarding external factors, there are a number of obstacles constraining their growth such as access to finance, competition, corruption, barriers to trade and macroeconomic factors as amongst some of the most significant issues. In terms of internal factors, there are also important constrains hindering their growth, for instance, poor management competences, lack of skilled labour, deficiencies in marketing strategies, little efforts on R&D, lack of new technology and low awareness concerning CSR are identified as some of the most important obstacles.

Full textSmall and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Thailand that develop and manufacture electrical and electronic products are among other SMEs in the world meeting increasingly stringent legal and customer requirements related to environmental issues. Obstacles for the SMEs around the world to meet these requirements are almost the same in form of lack of knowledge, budget and resources. The differences between SMEs in Thailand and SMEs in the EU, Japan or even Korea are that these countries have been developed the eco-design concept and SMEs have been involved in eco-design activities for many years. This process and activities are new both for the SMEs and for the supporting institutes and organisations in Thailand. Thailand has just started to build up the infrastructure to support the SMEs to implement the eco-design concept and to work more with product related environmental issues. The focus right now for the SMEs in this research is to comply with the EU Directives, RoHS and WEEE, and this is where the main investments are made, e.g. in order to be able to export to the demanding EU market.
This research is investigating what kind of environment demands that SMEs in Thailand that develop and manufacture electrical and electronic products have on their products, how they handle these requirements and also what obstacles there are for implementing a more product related environmental concept, also known as eco-design, Design for the Environment (DfE), Green Design or Environmentally Oriented Design. A research in form of interviews and factory visits has been done with five different SMEs in Thailand. These five SMEs have also participated in the first official eco-design projects in Thailand with funding from the government in Thailand and also some from the EU. Interviews have been conducted with involved parties in these project such as institutes and experts provided by Universities. These interviews were made in order to get their opinion and experience about the present situation for SMEs in Thailand that develop and manufacture electrical and electronic products to work with product related green issues.
The research shows that these companies have the possibilities and conditions to work further on with the eco-design concept in the future. Their participation in the eco-design projects has been a good experience and there is evidence of strong support from the management and owners, environmental awareness, pro-active work and motivation among the companies. The obstacles are as mentioned above concerning lack of resources, knowledge and experience of how these environmental demands and requirements will affect the product development process. This lack of experience depends mostly on the fact that these eco-design projects are the first projects in this field for the companies. These five companies have now built up a fundamental knowledge but are still in need of further support. The communication between the SMEs and supporting parties are important and also one factor these five companies think is functioning well.

The global phenomenon of rural-urban migration presents a great number of challenges, especially for cities in developing countries like Bangkok. While there is an urgency for cities to better accommodate their marginalized emigrant population, not many planners look into rural areas where migration actually begins. Specific to Thailand, most of the migrating population from country to city are in the working age. With the exodus of this population new problems begin to emerge in rural towns which include a lack of care for elders and parental care for children. Furthermore, the brain drain phenomenon also diminishes life and economic vibrancy in rural areas. At the same time, those who migrate into cities are often at risk of being marginalized. In many parts of Thailand, where amenities such as roads, education, and healthcare, have already been provided, migration continues despite some people's preferences to live back in rural areas. Tambon Pang Tawai, Amphoe Pang Sila Tong, Kampaeng Phet, Thailand serves as a case study of a typical rural town with low density, most of whose population work on farms. Furthermore, its proximity to the Mae Wong National Forest also presents an interesting relationship between the rural lifestyle and the natural environment. Thus, the development process of Tambon Pang Tawai has the potential become a model for many other rural towns with similar contexts. By using photography and participatory workshops as tools to engage youth and glean insights from their perspectives, this research found ways in which rural areas in Thailand can be improved and sustain themselves socially, economically, and environmentally. Additionally, the methodology of this research can also contribute to a cross-disciplinary framework of education and community development.

Ice maker was introduced in 1851 when John Gorrie was awarded US patent 8080 and then 1853 and 1855 to Alexander Twining and James Harrison respectively. Nowadays, ice makers can be found in many places like larger size refrigerator, most trendy restaurants coffee shops, hotels and movie theatres as well as factories, cruise lines, seafood industry and medical industry. Newton Equipment is one of the players in Thailand’s ice maker industry, it has been growing in the past decade with the strong capability to offer quality product and after sales services. It was once part of the leader in Thailand’s market, but since 1997’s financial crisis, things have changed tremendously. This company seems to be doing well, but after a more throughout study of its financial data, result shows that it has been suffering with various problems and the main one being the operation capital. Therefore, in order to conclude this study, toward the end there are a few improvement suggestions for the company in hope that it can strengthen the company’s financial and management situation. The foremost crucial thing that the company needs to improve is the account receivable and inventory management, while other aspects will need to be worked on in the same time.

The value creation is the activity of an organization, which attempts to increase values in a simple product for making extra values in similar prices and services. Some of the organizations use value added for upgrading the price and customer perspective. Nowadays, the value creation familiarizes with logistics activities. Especially in Thailand, most of the companies struggle to answer customer’s needs such as delivery time, monitoring, a channel in marketing, technology, and feature of product, etc. Therefore, value creation will be more important in business structure development. Several studies found that some firms use the logistics activities for creating competitive advantages through a new value creation structure, which advantages the company’s operations. Much literature review study in value creation and they were clarified in the same direction about logistics activity. It is the first step for developing the company to success in the potential of value creation and customer perspective. In our study, we use the Best Worst Method (BWM) to analyze the related criteria in logistics activities that affect value creation. We study the most and least important factors for the value creation in SME business in Thailand, and we found that technology development is the most significant factors to affect value creation.

Competition in global economy has gotten progressively fiercer, especially in the past century after we entered the era of globalization. Countries all over the world struggle for ways to be competitive. One of the methods that have been increasingly popular is regional economic integration. Regional economic integration, such as NAFTA or EU can bring a considerable advantage in production and trade for the member states, resulting in economic expansion. ASEAN, as a current major world supplier, has been seeking means to become competitive on an international level. Ten ASEAN countries, including Thailand, agreed to form the ASEAN Economic Community or AEC as a strategy to compete in the world economy. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) account for almost all businesses in Thailand. It is seen as an engine of growth due to the high quantity of them, and its large contribution to the employment rate. It is important to see how the AEC can affect SMEs and what opportunities and risks SMEs could have. Thailand can benefit from integration into the AEC if preparation is made to exploit future opportunities. However, it is also necessary to watch out for risks associated with increasing competition. Free flow of goods can help with production, imports, and exports. Meanwhile, goods have to reach an international standard to be able to compete in a global market. Free flow of investment and freer flow of capital can reduce the labor cost. Free flow of skilled labors and services increase FDI and relieve the issue of oligopolies. Nevertheless, Thailand does not welcome the idea of service sector liberalization. SMEs can survive in growing competition environment by focusing on research and development, enhancing product creativity and partnering up with foreign alliances. Government can also help by taking service liberalization seriously to encourage economic expansion. Therefore, this thesis aims to study the effects of AEC on Thai economy by doing literature review on the related topics.

Nowadays small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Thailand are growth rapidly. Then this research examined (1) the relationship between working capital management and their financial performance, and (2) the relationship between working capital management and corporate value for SMEs in Thailand. The sample comprised of 88 companies in seven (7) sectors (Agro and Food Industry, Consumer Products, Industrials, Property & Construction, Recourses, Services and Technology) listed in the Market for Alternative Investment (MAI) for the period of 2009 to 2013 which provided quarterly data. This study used cash conversion cycle (CCC), return on asset (ROA) and Tobin's q to serve as proxies for working capital management, companies' performance, and corporate value, respectively. Panel regression analysis is used as a method to analyze the data. The results show that there is a significant relationship between working capital management and profitability. In contrast, there are no significant relationship between working capital management and corporate value. These SMEs in Thailand are able to use working capital management for control profitability but they cannot be suitable for corporate value.

While an organization needs change, a good manager is supposed to feel it. There is need to pay more attention to the factors and drivers which happen within or outside of the organization and make the need for change evident and necessary. We conducted this study to determine the perceived value of government‟s award on organization. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a vital role in the country's economic development. In many countries, the government creates and designs the award for the SMEs who have good performance and also to assist the SMEs to challenges in the competitive global business environment. This research studies the SME‟s practices behavior. Value creation is become a part of organizations. Awards perceived value and incentive should be viewed as a part of improving process of an organization. These values are derived from a combination of awards competition‟s benefits during competition of government‟s award. Investigate the each value relationship by the ways organization response to award competition. The results indicate between before applying and after applying competition stage. We investigate the relationship of awards lead the organizational climates which return on firm competitive, whereas new awards are associated with growth.
