The tungsten carbide powder which recycled from the scarps of cemented tungsten carbide produces the purity of 99%. Using this tungsten carbide powder to manufacture a cutting tool and test its properties are the main objective of this work. Based on the standard SNMG 120408 the cutting tool with the dimension of 12.7x12.7x4.76 is fabricated. With the 100 hours of Ball milling grinding Cobalt mixing and sintering at 1430 °C the experimental result is impressive. At 15% of mixedcobalt the cutting tool with the hardness of 2031.6 HV be able to cut S45C steel in the feed rate of 0.2 meters per revolution and 45 m/min in the cutting speed. Besides that it provides the depth of cut of 0.25 mm and when it reaches the cutting distance of 4200 mm the surface roughness is 3.65 μm. In comparison with the cutting tool made of imported tungsten carbide powder which has a hardness of 1254 HV it turned out that our cutting tool has the equivalent quality in terms of hardness and wear resistance. Hence this work is considered to be a material development and a tungsten carbide cutting tool manufacture those would be the vital base to lead us to a commercial production.

Thailand destination image and national stability confidence become an important factor determining leisure destination for international tourists. Hence in 2015 Tourism Authority of Thailand has launches ‘Discovery Thainess’ campaign to enrich Thailand brand image become a quality leisure of global destination.

The study highlight Bangkok brand power city into five attractive characteristics defined by Tokyo brand power in order to make Bangkok as a premium tourist destination like ever. The result show that Bangkok is the safe place and comfortable delicious food culture culture diversity and fancy nightlife that make them ‘love Bangkok’. Thus they have a good travel experience in Thailand and definitely they will suggest Thailand to their friend and family.

The purpose of this research was to construct the appropriate forecasting model for the prices of field corn in Thailand using four time series analysis methods including Box-Jenkins method Holt’s exponential smoothing method damped trend exponential smoothing method and combined forecasting method. Time series data from the website of the Office of Agricultural Economics with total 227 months during January 1997 to November 2015 are used and divided into two series. The first 216 months from January 1997 until December 2014 used to build the forecasting models and the last 11 months from January until November 2015 used to compare the forecasting methods accuracies via the criteria of the lowest mean absolute percentage error and root mean squared error. Research finding indicated that combined forecasting model was the most accurate.

Thailands food processing industry is a important driving force in the economy of the nation. Their attractiveness of the industry dynamically generated employment and the intensity of competition at the same violence that increased its competitive advantage in the industry its important to bring the success and survival of a business. Earlier this competitive advantage has been studied and discussed widely both a cost advantage and the advantage of making a difference products and services. Currently there are more studies on the part of the competitive advantage that is consistent with the competitive situation that is highly dynamic. In this study was to review the literature that relevance to the dynamics competitive advantage in the food processing industry in Thailand. Therefore this article is useful for entrepreneurs executives in food processing industry as well as for the scholars who are interested in this line of research.
