Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn on December 3
acted as the representative of His Majesty the King when she granted degrees
to 5,263 graduate students for the 2006 education year at the Thamrong
Buasri Hall at Burapha University in Bangsaen.
The degree certificates were presented to bachelor, master and PhD graduates
during the morning and afternoon.
Amongst the recipients was Suwanthep ‘Tony’ Malhotra, executive director of
sales and marketing at Pattaya Mail Publishing Co Ltd, who had graduated
with a masters in business administration.
Her Royal Highness Princess Sirindhorn presented a speech to the new
graduates, stating that acquired knowledge is highly valuable for conducting
daily life and business, but that at least three further factors are
required for achievement. These are, firstly, persistence and diligence to
accomplish a task to full satisfaction. Secondly, to put one’s faith in
moral principles and moral philosophy, which means to perform good deeds and
be creative. And thirdly to be compassionate and consistent, and not to harm
others.
The Burapha University Council members had passed a unanimous resolution to
present an honorary PhD in economics to His Majesty the King, and an
honorary PhD in science to Her Royal Highness Princess Galyani.
Undergraduates wish the
graduates good luck.
