Please teach us what we can use in the future, and not only how to do exams."The banner was reported to be first seen around 1am on Friday. Around 2am on the same day, it appeared to have been removed.The Education Ministry has been hacked 102 times, including the latest one.

Pimay1 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 This speaks for itself. Education Ministry should have educated top of the line IT people taking care of their servers with firewall protection. But is guess that is expecting too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 At least the Education MInistry can learn a valuable lesson from these hackers: These guys are really, really, truly, truly EFFECTIVE in what they do. The ministry ain't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaikahuna Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I like the idea. Hack away guys and keep telling them what you think. or even "Keep telling them THAT you think!" A good friend who is a retired American administrator of Thai education says that when you teach them to think and not what to think it jeopardizes the free money, under the table giveaways and other graft they all enjoy. I hope for the sake f the country they keep pushing for education reform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The present policy of graft provides the big cheeses with a GREATLY extended pay packet AND the bonus of an exploitable, low wage, workforce. Doesn't really suit the people who vote for them much though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamhar Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Like breaking into an empty bank vault. Broke into an empty vault for the 102 time?? Why am i concerned that the MoE hasn't learned its lesson and have taken care of this matter? Lastly i was about to commend Admin for making me laugh regarding the "for the 102nd TIME" headline until i learned it was actually the 102nd time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
