| Popis: | To develop the sustainability, organizations and companies strive to achieve the social and economic progress while the environmental issue also needs to be regarded with an aim to conserve the natural resources. Thus, these three inseparable and interdependent components should be included in any development of sustainability. Furthermore, the successful development of sustainability cannot be achieved regardless of the participation and cooperation from related stakeholders. Thus, the managerial competency of stakeholders is of importance as the major determinant in managing and achieving the sustainability. Consequently, this research was aimed to explore and develop the stakeholders' managerial competency in sustainably managing Kaeng Krachan National Park in Thailand. The qualitative research by conducting in-depth interview and focus group was employed to collect data from stakeholders. In addition, the content analysis was also incorporated in this study to analyze the data. The informants included 20 management executives and staffs, 10 related governmental officers, 5 individuals from communities and 5tourists which were accounted for 40 individuals. The research findings revealed that the development of sustainability required the cooperation of governmental, private and community sectors in implementing the activities of both tourism promotion and forest conservation. The utmost participation and contribution of local communities and agencies as the committee member played an important role in the participative management of this national park. Moreover, the successful sustainability of this national park required the continuous cooperation of stakeholders in balancing the three components of sustainability including social, economic and environmental issues. Implications derived from the findings are discussed. |
