Uthenthawai classes face relocation to Samut Prakan amid student clashes

Today 10:12Key points summarised by AI

Uthenthawai Campus classes are set for relocation from Bangkok to Samut Prakan province following a series of violent student clashes with a rival institution.
The move is driven by Higher Education Minister Yodchanan Wongsawat, who ordered class suspension after a recent stabbing incident and is inspecting potential new sites.
The relocation also aligns with a court order for Uthenthawai to return its current site to Chulalongkorn University, aiming to physically separate the long-rival institutions.
Students are currently attending online classes, with Bang Phli being one of several potential new locations considered to reduce tensions while maintaining educational quality.
