RMUTT President Assoc. Prof. Numyoot Songthanapitak, has offered a policy to establish on the university an environment similar to the department store, which will interest the students, preferring to stay on campus rather than going outside where many alcohol shops exist.
Assoc. Prof. Sujira Khojitmata, an assistant to the university’s president (RMUTT), spoke about the visit to the university by Deputy Education Minister Chaiyot Jiramethakorn, “we are very pleased to have visitors from the Ministry of Education because they can then find out first hand the critical problems related to alcohol, so that the Ministry of Education can then set-up measures to deal with those who break the rules with regard to alcohol. Currently, the problem of alcohol shops opening near the university are becoming more problematic. Theses shops have not followed the Alcohol Act of 2008.”
“As for RMUTT, we will set-up a committee of social organizations by coordinating with land officers. The reason for this is that the nearby apartment owners have used their own buildings for pubs and bars. We believe the land officers can inform them of the proper regulations in this regard. Moreover, our committee will work with the committees of social organizations of Pathum Thani province,” Assoc. Prof. Sujira says.
Assoc. Prof. Sujira continues…, “this on-going campaign related to the alcohol shop problem and prevention in the areas near the university is due to the several factors, that being the increase in new apartment and commercial building construction – 84 finished apartments, 17 apartments under construction and 177 commercial buildings. Moreover, there are also 14,000 RMUTT students not including the 28,000 people who are non-RMUTT students, working people and other part-time university students that live near the university. This leads those who sell alcohol to see the importance of this group as a target for financial gain to the detriment of the futures and lives of our students.
