ผมไม่แน่ใจว่าการเขียน essay กับ speech จะมีลีลาการเขียนที่แตกต่างกันมากน้อยแค่ไหนครับ
Around the globe, concerns about wealth inequalities are receiving increased attention. Many governments have made decreasing income disparities a major priority. And in Thailand the disparities between the lives of the rich and the lives of the poor are now recognized as a crucial social issue. To grasp this issue in its Thai context one only needs to take a look at Bangkok, our capital. Over 50% of the companies doing business in our country are situated in Bangkok. More than half of our most prestigious schools and universities are situated there, also. Nearly all the earnings of hard working Thais in the East and West, North and South are sucked into Bangkok and spent there, leaving the rest of the nation impoverished.
Yes, governments can and should address inequalities in the distribution of their national wealth. And there are three primary means for doing so: through education, through political restructuring and through social awareness.
It is clear that they those who are well educated have access to all the good things in life, while those left ignorant do not. I stand here before you today as a young Thai student living in Lampang, fortunate to be enrolled in a program of higher education. I witness daily the gaps in our society: between those who have and those who dont, between those with prospects for the future and those without. And I see the close correlation of these advantages with the educational level one achieves. I see also the gaps in how our national resources are spent for civic development, for education for health and human services. And it is most sad to see how we in the provinces are left dependent on handouts bestowed by our supposedly benign superiors in the capital and how this erodes the spirit of local civic participation.
In Thailand, the structure of our political institutions plays more of a role in contributing to the disparities of wealth than to easing them. While Thailand claims a place among the democratic nations of the world it has instituted ever more autocratic rule by those in control at the center. For decades there have been pledges, affirmed in our constitutions, to institute decentralization, to give our other cities and towns and outlying provinces more control of their own affairs. Why have these pledges never been fulfilled? I am ashamed to say that it is because the people in the capital who have gained control of Thailands wealth dont wish to share it.
Social awareness is a major consideration in dealing with wealth inequalities. And in this modern age of new media, of cell phones and video cams, of Internet chat rooms and blogging there is an enhanced awareness of out peoples conditions around the country and especially of how much of our countrys wealth has become concentrated in the hands of a few people congregated in Bangkok. I would like to remind you of a quote by Abraham Lincoln which truly defines the concept of democracy: government of the people, by the people and for the people. We, the people, need to have government in our own hands. The power of our nation should no longer be concentrated in the hands of a few living in the capital. Indeed, power must be decentralized so that all Thai citizens can truly participate in ruling themselves.
The most important initiative government can take is to break up this logjam of wealth and power at the center. Let our riches flow naturally out to where they are earned and where they are needed: to Roi Et and Si Sa Kit, to Nan and Mai Hong Sorn, to Pattani and Pattallung. Let those who produce our rice and our rubber, who harvest the fish from the seas and labour in our factories, let them, the people decide for themselves what is in their best interests.
Finally, there are many gaps between Thailand and the richer, more developed countries of the world: in science and technology, in education and human welfare. But we Thai are a great and compassionate people. I say to everyone in this room here today, give the people a chance. Give them back the resources their labour has earned. Let them invest in the development of their home towns and home provinces. In this way, the disparities of wealth will be eroded and all Thai people will truly benefit.
