Abstract

In this thesis, the basic rights and governmental measures for helping and
protecting the homeless. By means of the juristic method, the Vagrant Protection Act B.E.
2557 (2014), was studied and analyzed with documentary research and descriptive
analysis. It was found that the homeless, vagrants and beggars in the city had been facing
difficulty earning a living and could not access government aid in urban area were the
main cause of migration of these people, hoping for a better lives, to the city. Further,
by roaming about, they were unwillingly forced with the application of criminal sanction
by the government and/or the local authority in sitting compulsive condition for them
to receive support assistance in vagrant protection housing for career training that did not
fit the individual. So, the homeless or vagrants whom were in such conditions would not
violate the laws and orders and would be protected, the researcher suggested that the
Vagrant Protection Act 2557 (2014) should be lifted or at least improved. In the case of
foreign vagrants, they should be deported.
