Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn on December 3 acted as the representative of His Majesty the King when she granted degrees to 5,263 graduate students for the 2006 education year at the Thamrong Buasri Hall at Burapha University in Bangsaen.
The degree certificates were presented to bachelor, master and PhD graduates during the morning and afternoon.
Amongst the recipients was Suwanthep ‘Tony’ Malhotra, executive director of sales and marketing at Pattaya Mail Publishing Co Ltd, who had graduated with a masters in business administration.
Her Royal Highness Princess Sirindhorn presented a speech to the new graduates, stating that acquired knowledge is highly valuable for conducting daily life and business, but that at least three further factors are required for achievement. These are, firstly, persistence and diligence to accomplish a task to full satisfaction. Secondly, to put one’s faith in moral principles and moral philosophy, which means to perform good deeds and be creative. And thirdly to be compassionate and consistent, and not to harm others.
The Burapha University Council members had passed a unanimous resolution to present an honorary PhD in economics to His Majesty the King, and an honorary PhD in science to Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani.

Undergraduates wish the graduates good luck.

Mark Beales
A town near Pattaya turned Japanese for a day for a special festival.
The first Thai-Japanese festival was held in Sriracha on December 1. The town’s health park played host to dozens of stalls and a stage.
Hundreds of Thai and Japanese visitors came to sample food, try on traditional Japanese dress, or watch children from local schools dance.
Assumption College Sriracha played a large part in the festival. At its stall students were busily making paper ghosts, which are said to ward off rain and bad luck, while on stage Assumption’s secondary students put on a memorable dance show.
