  <abstract>The structural transformation process, occurring side by side with the economic development  of Thailand, has been illustrated via the dynamic change among the agricultural, the rural industrial, I  and the urban industrial sector through a SYSTEM DYNAMICS model with the introduction of a  PSEUDO SPATIAL DIMENSION. Based on the common framework, all sectors are modeled  to incorporate the macrostructure of economic growth and the microstructure of market clearing  mechanisms, and are linked together by a set of inter-regional relationships including trade flow,  human resources migration mechanisms, and capital resources allocation. The study shows that the  successful industrialization needs both push and pull policies to induce people to shift from the  agricultural sector to work for industrial activities. The imbalanced structure of industrial activities,  that there exists growth pole in the urban industrial sector, can be alleviated by policies that transfer  the competitiveness in production to the rural industrial sector. The urban industrial sector, however,  refers to Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR).</abstract>
