School building in Nong Bua Lamphu destroyed by fire

By The Nation

 

A two-storey school building in Nong Bua Lamphu’s Nonesung was burned down on Thursday night.


The Nonesung police station was alerted of the fire at Ban Nong Kung Khamhai School at 9.30pm and alerted fire stations who sent seven fire engines to tackle the blaze.

 

Firefighters took about 40 minutes to control the blaze. 

 

The fire destroyed the entire building, leaving only concrete walls on the ground floor and poles on the second floor.

 

Thongsai Chula, a teacher who was on duty, said he heard three explosions and saw the blaze spread quickly from the ground floor.

 

Owart Srichanwiang, the director of the school, said the building was built in 1981. The upper floor was made of wood and housed six classrooms. The ground floor was used as a teachers' meeting room, a computer laboratory with 10 computers and a first-aid room. He said all the school’s computers have been lost.

Student/s with a grudge against the school or a local Redshirt sympathiser with a taste for anti-govt arson? Back in 2010, I heard of a Redshirt school principal who burned down his own school in Sakhon Nakhon in an act of anti-govt pique, a few days after the burning of the provincial halls and other govt buildings and banks across Isaan and Bangkok. Or could just be an honest "accident", with 3  computers exploding in harmonic sympathy. :sad:

There are times when posters spout unadulterated rubbish, three explosions could actually mean that the fire started in the computer room with the monitors exp[loding due to the fire and rest as they say is history, probably knowing most local schools bad wiring and poor safety to blame .
