“The passing of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej was a very great loss to the Thai people and the state and private entities have been organising various activities to show their condolences and undying loyalty,” notes Asst Prof Kowit Puangngarm, Dean of the Social Administration Faculty.

“Thammasat’s Tha Prachan campus is close to the Grand Palace and Sanam Luang where people come to pay respect to the late King and is equipped with various facilities including restrooms and the coordinating centre for volunteers while the area around the Social Administration Faculty offers food and beverages to the public and volunteers.

“The faculty and South East Asia University are thus introducing this ‘Photo in remembrance of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej’ project to help those come to pay respects take home a memento of their visit while simultaneously raising awareness about the faculty. The project will provide 200 photo shoots a day for 5 months of people paying respect to His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej. The photos measure 6×8 and are in colour with 11 backgrounds from which to choose including His Majesty the King’s activities and the Grand Palace. This project is expected to be another landmark for volunteer activities during this historic event.”

Those who are interested in having a photo taken of themselves paying respect to the late King can visit Room 108 of the faculty every day until October 19. Find out more by calling (02) 613 2500 between 9am and 4pm.
