Abstract |
This work was about health communication among 1,147 Tai Yai migrant workers from Myamar in various districts in Chiang Mai province. The study findings revealed that television was the most accessible form of media, followed by radio, newspapers, magazines, journals, brochures, and posters. However, television did not contain much health content. Radio had more health content than television because various agencies produced health programs for radio stations in Chiang Mai. For other media like brochures, access was limited despite containing a lot of health content.
