    Yes this problem has been there for decade. Please PM or MP take care of this seriously. I was in high school and attacked 25 years ago.

    Even the students could have deadly weapon. Imagine how easy it is to obtain such deadly weapons in Thailand. What is the future of Thai students?

    What is it with Technical University students and their gun-shooting rivalries with other universities? I've read about this happening before, here we see it's happened two times in one day with two children shot.

    Clashes between groups of technical students have been going on for decades, yet nobody seems to do anything to stop them. Why is it so difficult to get to the roots of this problem and solve it?
