บทคัดย่อ

This study examines policy briefs for the potential development of railway tourism in the Khao Luang area of Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. It is a mixed-methods study, with a sample of 560 people and 22 key informants representing various railway tourism stakeholders, including government agencies, the private sector, residents, and community enterprises. Using descriptive statistics, the study identifies two main issues related to the development of railway tourism potential in the region: 1) the community's existing potential for managing railway tourism and 2) the community potential that needs further development for managing railway tourism. The research considers the top three potentials for management and the final three potentials for development. This data will be analyzed and interpreted to create policy briefs for the development of railway tourism. Additionally, the researcher used the five strategic issues outlined in the Nakhon Si Thammarat Province Tourism Development Plan (2022-2027) as a guideline for writing the policy briefs.
