摘要
This research looks at the aspects of cycling in Bangkok and weighs up the fact that the population in Bangkok, similar to any other urban population, is becoming less active and this trend is raising concerns in Thailand. Cycling, like many other physical activities, that could be reversed dramatically, especially on such illnesses such as obesity and diabetes 2, but it's attempting to change habits and educating people of the benefits of regular exercise and reversing this trend. This study then identified many of the concerns of cycling in Bangkok that were brought up by the qualitative research, aspects such as congestion, noise, pollution and the dangers of Bangkok roads, which are the second only to Libya for deaths.
