PIP: Developments in the field of population and family planning during 1973 in Thailand are reviewed. Thailand's National Family Planning Program experienced a 10% decline in acceptors. There were 18% fewer pill acceptors in 1973 than in 1972. IUD insertions increased slightly and the number of female sterilizations rose considerably. It has been difficult to maintain the program's momentum. However, in the last quarter of the year there was an increase in the number of new acceptors. In 1973, the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) supported the first nationwide public information and communications program. It also assisted in expanding the sterilization project and in accelerating the development of the 4-province maternal and child health and family planning service project. Preliminary plans were made for increasing the number of contraceptive methods provided by the national program. The Thai program assumed an active role in the International Committee for Applied Research in Population and the Inter-Governmental Coordinating Committee. The Planned Parenthood Association of Thailand expanded its activities, primarily in the area of public information and communications. A pilot project to train nurse-midwives to conduct gynecological examinations and insert IUDs was begun. A new 7-story building for the Family Health Division was completed in early 1973 with the support of the Royal Danish Government and was occupied in April. Motorcycles provided by the UNFPA for use by government midwives began to arrive during the year. Over 1500 of a total of 3600 expected by mid-1974 are already in the field. This equipment is expected to increase dramatically the mobility of midwives throughout the country.
