This has a very important influence on Thai South Patani students who come to study in Indonesia because Thai South Patani students need to adapt to their surroundings, especially where Thai South Patani students study. Thus, this organization (PMIPTI) exists as a means to facilitate Thai South Patani students in carrying out their study activities, where this organization (PMIPTI) provides empowerment to students in various fields, including empowerment in the fields of education, ethics, and culture and language. This type of research is a qualitative descriptive analysis in the form of field research using data collection techniques, namely observation, interviews and documentation.
