Abstract

This research uses a mixed method by collecting both quantitative and qualitative data, divided into two parts i.e., the research base and the practice base. It is the study of insight and practice, concurrently according to the objectives, which are: 1. To study and uphold the arts and culture in the Poy Sang Long tradition of the Tai Yai ethnicity in Mae Hong Son province. 2.
