The 11th Asian Cartoon Exhibition


- Asian Youth Culture -


The 11th Asian Cartoon Exhibition this year will be marked as the final Asian Cartoon


Exhibition, which has been held continually every year for 11 years as a contribution to


the greater understanding of Asian societies, cultures and people.


This year the Japan Foundation, Bangkok, the Thai Cartoonists Association and Nakhon


Ratchasima Rajabhat University proudly present the 11th Asian Cartoon Exhibition on the


theme �Asian Youth Culture�.


77 new and exciting cartoons created by the leading cartoonists from 10 Asian nations


reflect the lifestyle and culture of the youth in Asian nations. These cartoons show us


how globalization has linked and created a resemblance between the youth in each


country; Thai audiences might experience that the youth in Malaysia get into football no


less than the youth in Thailand, and game mania is the phenomenon that happens both in


Indonesia and Japan.


We would like to introduce Mr. Kosin Srilidtipradit, �Ko Nong� the Thai cartoonist


whose works are shown in this exhibition. He is the cartoonist for the major vernacular


newspaper �Matichon� and �Matichon Weekly�. This year, the exhibition will be held in


Bangkok before moving to Nakhon Ratchasima as follows:
