Fire-gutted school seeks public donations for new building

By The Nation

 

The director of a public elementary school in Mahasarakham province on Saturday pleaded with the public for donations for a new school building and purchase of tele-education equipment after the school’s old building was destroyed in a fire last month.

 

Ratana Yoskamthorn, the director of Ban Nong Klong Huakhua School in tambon Kudrung in Kudrung district, said the fire destroyed a one-storey wooden school building that housed five classrooms of grade 4 to grade 6 students and a library as well as activity rooms.

 

The school has 124 students from kindergarten to Grade 6 levels.

 

She said the tambon administrative organisation had offered to allocate over Bt600,000 budget for the construction of a new school building but red tape would likely delay construction until next year.

 

As a result, she had decide to organise a public donation campaign for the new building so that teaching could resume when the new school year begins in June. Since her school needs to use a satellite-based tele-education system, she is also soliciting donations of TV sets.

 

She said donations could be made at the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives’ account number 020-09940-931-3 or contact her at 083-340-1593.

Why not ask the military to postpone the subs and pitch in.  Use it to your advatage Prayuth, take the media along and say look what I am doing for my people in the name of reconciliation.

Yes, ask military to divert funds from those subs, etc.....or look for a 2-headed-cow, rotting-tree-trunk financial plan.

 

Better yet, sell the aircraft carrier to scrap metal and you can build dozen of schools

with that money....

Does anyone know if these state buildings are actually insured?

Wow........ I read the main topic and wanted to reply about using the Submarine money, And as I read above..... everybody had the same idea and beat me to it.........

Just shows that it is a 'very common' reaction (or opinion)........... LOL
