Asst. Prof. Dr. Hiran Prasankarn, Acting President of PKRU stated that "PKRU intends to be creative university providing education, local wisdom, and innovation for sustainable development in local community and country which corresponds to the meaning of university name - the king's scholars. Not only do we work on education management, but we also conduct research that benefits the public, preserve local art and culture, and provide services to locals. Furthermore, we are establishing a learning society by educating qualified graduates under the royal direction of King Wachiralongkorn. Everyone at the university gives their all to those missions, and it is with this pride that we celebrate our 50th anniversary.
This Maholan Festival PKRU 50+ event is organized with the enthusiasm of everyone at PKRU to share people-educating and entertaining activities that reflect the university's identity. The event also serves as a good starting point for strengthening relationships and collaboration between the university and local supportive organizations.
