Introduction

The Ministry of the Interior is primarily responsible for the maintenance of people's well-being, which is a function that has a wide scope of missions. The Sub-district Headmen and village headman as local administrative staff, therefore, have a role to be responsible for the work of the Ministry of Interior and also be responsible for the work of all ministries, bureaus, departments that are brought into practice in the sub-district / village. Therefore, it is considered an important mechanism for the government's work to achieve its goals, the position of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen therefore first occurred during the reign of King Rama V. Because at that time, Thailand was facing the threat of Western powers extending their influence to neighboring countries of Thailand. While the Thai rule at that time was still outdated, there was no real administrative unity, endangering the stability of the kingdom. Therefore, King Chulalongkorn decided to reform the government to strengthen and maintain national independence, therefore a major reform of the sub-district/village level government was made in 1892. By His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Seng) Wiriyasiri) went to try to set up Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen at Ban Koh Bang Pa-In, Bang Pa-In District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province, which had determined that the people would consider choosing the village headmen, then let the headmen choose among themselves to be the Sub-district Headmen. The performance of duties also stipulates that there is a duty to maintain order in the locality, to prevent theft and criminals, and to impose some benefits in return, such as Reduce the cost of rice, bamboo tax, the cost of trampling at Narathiwat, etc. The purpose is for the people who are elected by the people to have the duty to take care of the operations of the sub-district, the village to be orderly, to be the eyes and eyes of the government to help look after the health of the people in general, as well as to help expedite the collection of taxes, duties, and benefits of the state which are rightfully deserved by the people (Department of Administrative Affairs, Ministry of Interior, 2010).

Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen is an institution that governs and administers the “locality” governance that has been born and developed continuously since the reign of King Rama V and until the present. It can still be said that the Sub-district Headmen and the Headman are institutions that have both roles and authority in subdistricts known as subdistricts and villages which have the concept of law and public administration collectively known as "local government". As can be seen that the name is the name of the administrative system and is a system of government in Thailand, which has the Local Administrative Act 1914 as the model law that has laid the foundation for the characteristics of such local government, which is considered an important structure of Thai territorial administration (Mektrairat et al., 2003).

In the later period, the provincial administrative structure was established with provinces and districts as another superstructure. This kind of local governance has resulted in the continued development of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen of Thailand and, most importantly, having two statuses go hand in hand. That is to say, on the one hand, the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen are state representatives, the central and regional governments operating at the lowest levels of the state, and being in close contact with the people in various areas, the important duty is to help with coordination such as meetings of people in the villages and informing the public about official news, etc. At the same time, the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen have the status and role of people's representatives as leaders of the community, as they are not full-time government officials, nor are they working full-time for the government. Such roles and duties resulted in the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen having a duty to take care of the happiness and suffering of the people known as "the villagers" in many aspects, both related to the mobilization of resources from various sources to have the necessary infrastructure of the village sub-district, cultural and psychological activities of the residents (Mektrairat et al., 2003).

In 2006, the 1914 Local Administrative Act was amended concerning the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen, adding many questions and doubts. Despite what the role of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen play, including adjusting salaries for the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen, and serving a term of office as a political official, or requiring a 60-year retirement (No. 11, 2008, Section 14) like a regular official, or even the issue of who or any agency or organization will oversee, evaluate the performance of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen, and if so, how will they be assessed, and by what means to the most concrete. The Local Administrative Act (No. 12) 2009, Section 3 states that the revocation of the positions of Sub-district Headmen, Village Headmen, Sub-district Doctors, Sub-district Chief Inspector, and Assistant Village Headmen cannot be done. In the case of raising the status of the Sub-district Administrative Organization to be a Sub-District Municipality or a City Municipality, if there are still Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen in that area, they will continue to hold office (Puang-ngam, 2005).

The amendment of the 1914 Local Administrative Characteristics Act concerning the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen during the 2006-2014 period, is an important issue and should be studied. Therefore, the researcher sees the importance of under such circumstances, therefore considers that research studies should be conducted. “Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen and what their potential, roles, and responsibilities both in law and in practice are realistic, how should Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen be adapted, amid political transformations and administrative reforms?”.

They have existed since the Sukhothai period. The establishment of the village headman and village headman in the reign of King Rama V relied on the aforementioned structures as a guideline for the establishment, which enabled the people to understand and be of great benefit in the administration, which was the true purpose of the government in recruiting rulers at the village level and The well-skilled sub-district in the village came up to take care of the villagers to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

Potential, Roles and Duties of Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen in the 21st Century, Roi Et Province

Following the amendments and amendments to the Local Administrative Law in 1932, to the present, the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen serve as sheriff aids and government officials working in the field of public order and internal security. Reduce the duty that the local area can perform by itself to the duty of the local government organization the amendments to the aforementioned capacity, roles, and mandates will allow citizens to be better served by the state through the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen. Because the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen are natural leaders, acting as a liaison between the provincial government, district, village, and local government, and as a mediator who acts as a mediator, compromise and manages conflicts in the area, is responsible for the welfare of the people, is the closest person to the people. Sometimes when there is a serious incident or in situations where the government cannot quickly descend into the area, the Sub-district Headmen and the village headman also co-ordinate public affairs and direct the public's problems to the government to resolve the issue. which is consistent with the research of Songkhram Korsutthitheerakun (1998) A research study titled “Local Development in the Functions of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen” indicated that the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen system has been invaluable since ancient times, which has been in existence since the Sukhothai period. The establishment of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen in the reign of King Rama V relied on the same structures as a guideline for the establishment, which made the people understand and were very useful in the administration which was the true purpose of the government to Provide village and sub-district level rulers who are skilled in the village to govern and take care of the villagers to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen are the main bureaucratic engines as they are truly leaders in rural development, but the government needs to upgrade the skills of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen to be able to carry out their mission. effectively according to the growth of the country

Problems and Obstacles Related to the Potential, Roles, and Authority of Local Government Leaders in the 21^st Century of Sub-District Headmen and Village Headmen, Roi Et Province

The amendment and amendment of the 1932 Local Administrative Law to the present changed the structure of entry into the Sub-district Headmen and Headmen. In particular, there is currently a committee to review the qualifications of the candidates to be elected as Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen to check the qualifications and prohibitions of candidates to be elected as headmen, which expects the people to participate with the government officials in selecting persons with appropriate behavior to get good people with no detrimental history, no gangly behavior, influencing, illegal or drug-related behavior hold a position. Including serving as a board member or informant to the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen Performance Assessment Committee, most of the respondents agreed that it is appropriate that the examination by citizens who have known habits Behavior and personal history of applicants better than the official will reduce resistance, complaints. According to the concept of people's participation in politics of Jantana Suttijaree (2001) said that “public participation increases the quality of decision-making, reduces political dissent and ensures the legitimacy of decision-making.” Therefore, the researcher has considered the issue of using the Local Administrative Act (No. 11) 2551, that is, does not cause real participation from the people because of the determination of a committee to examine the qualifications of those who will be elected. It is a Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen from a small group (4 -7 people). These can be biased or influenced by groups and in regards to entry into the Sub-district Headmen, which the village headman in the sub-district chose among themselves, which directly restricted the rights of the people in the sub-district, which was a contradiction to the idea of people's political participation.

Guidelines for the Development of Potential, Roles, and Authority of Governing Leaders the 21st-century area of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen, Roi Et Province

“Tenure of Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen until the age of 60” That is to say, to create morale for the incumbent, to make the work continuity, able to solve problems quickly, because of the experience of working. However, holding office until the age of 60 may cost the state a good and knowledgeable person, since some Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen can perform well and productively even at the age of 60, it should be renewed. Moreover, frequent elections can cause divisions within the village. This is consistent with the research of Vuttipong Jaturat (1995) The person who studied the term of office for 5 years said that “The more often Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen are chosen; the more divisions arise.” The researcher saw that the village headman's selection came from a small group of societies within a village, compared to other elections, the candidates had close relatives, friends, and acquaintances choosing among themselves normally. However, it may be seen as a division, but in reality, most of the people elected as the headman can do a good job and the whole village has to accept the democratic voting results. Consequently, the rift arises only on the day of the vote and from the misbehavior of the incumbent.

“Tenure until the age of 60” That is to say, it saves the state budget from having to hold elections frequently. As for the issue of duties of Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen will be more flexible and able to help the provincial government well because they have more work experience, especially at present there is a reduction in the rate of civil servants of the Department of Provincial Administration, the district Headmen and Village Headmen, who will serve as the sheriff's assistant and assist other government agencies. This is a good and appropriate thing to help accomplish the urgent tasks of the government, such as solving drug problems, problems of public order, and solving poverty. Including the gathering of masses to express loyalty to the nation, religion, king, and create reconciliation and unity of the people in the nation.

“Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen Compensation Increase” In other words, Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen in modern times have the same economic problems as the general public and have largely become the base of politicians because they can convince people to believe and guide elections. Each government compensation increase acts as a political promise that will be the basis for that government, where Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen will continually negotiate their compensation. In the past, the candidates for the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen had to be people who were respected by the people, powerful, prestige, and is a person of reasonable wealth who can give dependence from the people in the village. Being appointed to the office is a pride for that person and his family, and coming into office must be based on voluntary and sacrifice because he must be able to do his duty 24 hours a day, especially when the people call or There is an urgent government or emergency situation that can solve all problems for the people. Therefore, the position of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen is also a position that can bring power and prestige to the titleholder as well. Consequently, Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen should be prouder of the dignity of their duties than the consideration of compensation.

New Knowledge Synthesis

The results Research on “Potentials, Roles, and Duties of Local Government Leaders in the 21st Century of Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen, Roi Et Province”. The researcher has new knowledge findings that should be presented in 3 areas.

Recommendation

Results Research Recommendations

1. Performance appraisals should only be a tool for retiring as they may deprive the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen of morale.

2. The sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen should prioritize compensation as a reward for the performance of duties, being a respected leader of the village people in the subdistrict rather than as an integral part of their livelihood.

3. Reduce the role of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen to be only the workload that is not redundant with other departments in the area, especially the work that is redundant with the Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO).

4. Based on the history, prestige, and prestige of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen Institute, as village heads, community leaders are the main mechanisms and important intermediaries for coordinating village and district people to solve problems as well as being an intermediary in presenting problems from the villagers in the area to the responsible agencies. The salary rate should be increased accordingly because although the legal responsibility is reduced, the role and social work of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen remain.

Therefore, the increase in remuneration rates is adjusted to suit the circumstances and dignity of the Sub-district Headmen and Village Headmen as consultants. Leaders and leaders of the community. However, any adjustments to the additional compensation should be considered appropriate, for example, it may be in the form of benefits or other privileges rather than the amount.

Recommendations for the Next Research Study

1. Should increase the scope of research areas in different districts to obtain more comprehensive data.

2. Should increase the selection of samples group by other methods to obtain more diverse data.
