From Observation to Understanding

The “3556” in the title of the documentary “Area 3556: The Non-Poor Border” comes from the figure 3,556 baht, which is the monthly income used to cut the poverty line in Bangkok. To put it simply, anyone living in Bangkok whose income is lower than this figure is counted as “poor” and must face a variety of problems that the state must help with, including health problems, living conditions, education, income, and access to state services. สล็อต
