Her notable contributions included her leadership in reforming the judicial system and improving the quality of life for underprivileged groups through the “Kamlangjai” (Inspire) Project. Furthermore, her extensive humanitarian relief work through the “Friends in Need (of “PA”) Volunteers Foundation, Thai Red Cross Society” stands as a testament to her profound compassion for the Thai people.
The university executives, faculty, and staff also gathered to honor the outstanding capabilities and academic achievements of Her Royal Highness, who was one of the university’s most distinguished alumnae.
