The National Municipal League of Thailand was established to promote municipal affairs. This plaque features the emblem of the National Municipal League of Thailand and a map of Thailand. The shape of Thailand resembles an elephant's head. It can be broadly separated into four regions based on local characteristics. Northern Thailand is a predominantly elevated jungle. Northeast Thailand is a plateau of virgin rainforest. Central Thailand is the center of development. The Mekong River regulates the fertile soil in this region. The narrower Southern Thailand is home to some of Asia's most attractive beaches and islands.
