RMUTT joins eight other universities under the Rajamangala University of Technology’s umbrella in an effort to promote Thai culture and welcome the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC). The event, ‘Nine Rajamangala Universities for the Splendor of Thai Culture’, is hosted by Rajamanagala University of Technology Rattanakosin.
Tossaporn Kaewsrisook, fourth-year student from the Faculty of Technical Education and president of the study body said that this is the fourth time that the event has been organized, and the main theme for RMUTT’s participation this year includes a showcase of both academic and cultural projects from various faculties, such as Faculty of Agricultural Technology, Thai Traditional Medicine College, and Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts.
“We performed two cultural shows, one choreographed especially for the AEC and a traditional khon mask dance, directed by Ajarn Chavalit Sutranon, an expert from the Fine Arts Department, Thailand’s Ministry of Culture,” said Tossaporn.
The main objective is “to convey mulple facets of central Thailand’s civilization and cultural tradition, from traditional costumes, cuisine, customs, all the way to high art such as khon and other special performaces designed to reflect the good relations between Thailand and the ASEAN countries,” said Jompol Sangn-ngern, fourth-year student in Home Economics Technology Faculty and president of the student body’s art and culture section.
“Khon performances are physically challenging,” said Patcharaporn Wongjon, performer and second-year student majoring in Thai Classical Dance. “I am very delighted to be a part of this event, so I requested to participate in it. My role is a monkey, usually a playful and fun character. To prepare for the performace, I practiced on my free time with Ajarn. The challenging part is to learn how to convey emotions through body movements and learn how to breathe when wearing the khon mask,” she said.
For the main protagonist character, or Rama, the main challenge is to convey the essence of the character’s personality, which is charismatic and smart. As a human character, the performer doesn’t need to wear a mask. Thus the screening process involves searching for the one with the right ‘look’, then this performer will have to undergo strenuous practice in order to convey directly and precisely Rama’s charismatic and smart personality.
“Emotions have to be precisely conveyed through the mask and body movements, thus the performer’s physical strength is very important,” said Attapol Duwaodam, third-year student in Thai Classical Dance who played the main protagonists, Tossakan. “I have studied and absorbed the essence of the khon performance since Mathayom 1. It’s a pity that khon is slowly disappearing. It takes so much time and effort to train one performer to be able to play a character so well,” he added.
Meanwhile, students from the Faculty of Agricultural Technology offered a showcase on traditional farming practice and methods, with an aim of providing background knowledge on the important role that the farming and agricultural sector has played on the development of Thailand’s economy. The showcase also included a mention of traditional ceremonies, such as the rice-blessing ceremony and the annual royal ploughing ceremony.
The presentation by students from the Thai Traditional Medicine College focused on the court’s tradition of wellness and beauty, whether knowledge of the natural elements in healing, ancient medicine recipes, traditional Thai massage, or health and beauty products.
