There were limits and challenges of educational management with centralization in general, while there were irregularities with educational qualities and accessibilities for the local administration. The centralized education was criticized for non-responding to needs and contexts of cultural and ethnic diversities. 2.6 Right to Health: Thailand is now approaching to the aging society with more vulnerability for its healthcare management systems, comprising the national healthcare scheme; the social security scheme; and the government officers’ welfare scheme.

And although the Government has made significant efforts to issue and regulate laws and policies with actions for progressive realization and protection of rights of groups with marginalization and vulnerability, but the constraints and limits with interpretation of laws and policies into practices are still found particularly with irregularities and incoherence of laws and policies that caused impacts to communities and people on the ground.
