(1) The problem of access to and use of natural resources by indigenous peoples:
, indigenous peoples became victims from different measures, such as, blocking access to land and natural resources, being arrested and sent to court, involuntary relocation, and farmland confiscation
Policy:

(2) The problem of cultural integrity:
An increasing number of younger generations, both male and female, are in the process of losing the cultural identity and thereby their cultural disintegration
(3) The problem of ethnic prejudice:
Different forms of media propagation contribute to the development of prejudice mindset among the people in the public sector. This eventually leads to ethnic discrimination and violation of human rights;
(4) The problem of personal legal status:
With the stateless status, many indigenous people have to confront with their lack of access and their loss of rights as well as opportunity to equal public services.
Problems:
(1) the community still lacked participation in solving their own problems, including not being able to inform and update with the policy information that may impact to their communities;
(2) no acceptance of indigenous people's identity; and
(3) no policy to promote the livelihood of indigenous peoples.

the leadership role of elderly people has been reduced to customary matters. when community leadership is determined via election as a result of government imposition, younger leaders with Thai language capability have been elected mostly.
Indigenous People with Disability:
IPWDs represent a marginalized population within a marginalized population that brings complexity. They are mostly uneducated, unaware about their rights, resources and are outreach of legal, basic services and legal remedy
