In 1998, when I was studying undergraduate, was the first time in my life I have been in Japan. I never though I could come here back again. At this moment, my dream comes true to pursue my doctoral course in Hiroshima University. I am really happy and feel so good, so it may not be very difficult for me to live and spend time in Japan again.

Beginning of new life:

I just entered doctoral course in the laboratory of Food and Resource Economics, Department of Bioresource Science, Graduate School of Biosphere Science almost half a year ago (April 2008). Last year (2007) October, I arrived at Hiroshima Airport, at that time I really felt pleased when my friends who studied the same as my laboratory picked me up there. They took care of me as a warm welcome as well as a family member. Therefore, I could say that also all my laboratory friends are often assist me while I get some trouble things especially academic knowledge. Deeply, I appreciated everyone so much here; they are incredibly nice more than I can say.

Academic life:

The most attractive field for me when I was young was agriculture. I really love natural world. This is one reason I have made the decision to study both bachelor and master degree in Faculty of Agriculture, Kasetsart University (KU) that is inventive and well-known in agricultural university in Thailand. Even in my doctoral course, I studied in the department of Bioresource Science, which provides in agricultural field that I have graduated. Nowadays, in my research, I emphasize on jasmine rice farming, one of the most famous rice species in Thailand, and with the support of my supervisor, Professor Dr. Masahiro Yamao who is the one that extremely in fishery and agriculture in Hiroshima University. By the way, the good educational environments, fine weather and qualitative libraries in this university will make my research successful as well.

Social life:

Different culture and various international students in Hiroshima University (HU) are present in my laboratory and even though everyone came from different positions, we can harmonize and understand each others very well. Fortunately, I can utilize both English and Japanese with my colleagues in order to success my research. A peaceful city like Higashi-Hiroshima always makes me feel really happy and have meditation to study here. There are also numerous kinds of transportation and support for international students to anywhere continuously. Here, people are very kind and quite clear understand the foreigner students from various countries, also they have try to transfer beautiful and outstanding Japanese culture to us. For this, I really love and feel fascinated in such gorgeous country: Japan.

Last but not least, I would like to thank Thai Royal Government for giving me this scholarship in order to pursue my future dream in doctoral course here. Presently, I am really glad while I am spending my life and studying in Hiroshima University. At this time, I can make a lot of new friends that I never known before. The wonderful and peaceful place, Hiroshima, I hope everybody and others will have pleasant days in Japan where is clean, peaceful and safe and sound city.
