2010 July Summer University starts

 Extending the hands of friendship...

 
Monday 5 July was the start of the 2010 Summer University, programme at Asian University. A second programme will start in August.

 Dr. Viphandh welcomes our guests from other countries.

The undergraduates and postgraduates from six different countries will be together for three weeks an Asian Experience based in different parts of Thailand. Initially they are on the campus, then after a weekend on Koh Samet, they stay at the Sea Breeze Hotel in Jomtien. The next weekend is a visit to the north, to Chiang Mai, and then the final week is based in Bangkok. With a variety of lectures, visits and fun to look forward to, the participants are set to make the most of their visit to Thailand.

After dinner and a special welcome from the University President, Dr. Viphandh Roengpithya, and the programme organiser, Keith Cheeseborough, the Bi Si ceremony was held outside in the courtyard of the university. The stars shone down on the group, as they were told about the significance of the string and enjoyed the atmosphere with their new friends.

The thinking about the Asian experience based on the six countries,really this is a good work that the persons can shared and allocate the experience with the others,mainly the thing you told about the second program will start in August,is useful but the summer program is outstanding and absolutely brilliant.
