PATHUM THANI — Students from three technical colleges in Pathum Thani were ordered to paint over the gang signs they allegedly sprayed on walls in the town center, in an effort to reduce rivalries among the students.

Dozens of students from Pathum Thani Technical College, Pathum Thani Technological College, and Laem Thong Technology College were escorted by their teachers to remove graffiti from the walls of buildings in Hor Saeng Chai market and nearby areas today.

Rival gangs of technical students in Thailand often graffiti walls with their school emblems and other taunting messages to proclaim their "control" over certain "territories."

The rivalries between students occasionally turn violent and even deadly. On 16 January, two techincal students were shot dead on their way to school in Pathum Thani province, in what police suspect was a gang-related assassination. A week prior to the incident, passengers riding a public bus in province were forced to evacuate when nearly a dozen technical students reportedly attacked the vehicle because it was carrying students from a rival school.

sound like a lovely bunch of kids

Not so much different from football hooligans.

Which are not exclusive to Thailand, if memory serves.

"Rival gangs of technical students in Thailand often graffiti walls with their school emblems and other taunting messages to proclaim their "control" over certain "territories.""

well it does sound exactly like the Bloods and the Cripps, or the Sharks and the Jets. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... US role models.
