Very slow learners

-

In his Sept 8 letter Songdej Praditsman­on writes that student Netiwit Chotiphatp­haisal “was already condemned by fair-minded individual­s and cursed by many alumni” but what he doesn’t explain is why. To some of us simple minded non-Chula graduates it appears that Mr Netiwit has clearly understood the message from King Rama V given in 1873 when he expressed “the necessity of rebuilding a more equal relationsh­ip between different groups in society”. What isn’t apparent is that the administra­tors running the university have understood this message and taken steps to advance these opinions.

Having had 144 years to ponder the subject I must draw the conclusion that these people are extremely slow learners and maybe not so fair-minded at all. LUNGSTIB
