RorDor at Bangkok Patana

By Pinkarn Vajrapana – Head of Thai Programme

The Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) programme, commonly known as ‘RorDor’ at Bangok Patana comprises 85 Thai students in Years 1–3 (Y11–Y13) this academic year. The three-year programme runs on Saturdays for 10 weeks during Term 1 and includes mandatory field training at Khao Chon Gai Camp, Kanchanaburi in February.

In addition to the regular military training, the programme also includes RorDor community service activities, which promote social responsibility. This year, our students joined three main projects:

1. Royal Volunteer Project – Flood Relief
On 17th October 2025, Year 12–13 RorDor students assisted in preparing Thai Red Cross relief packages at the Infantry Department 11 Royal Guard, for distribution to flood victims in Ayutthaya.

2. Huai Khwang Canal Cleaning Project
On 23rd October 2025, Year 12 RorDor students helped clean the canal and nearby walkways. They also supported the public relations team by taking photos for the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps Centre’s Facebook page (FB: ศูนย์การนักศึกษาวิชาทหาร).

3. RorDor Chit Asa Project at Sanam Luang and Grand Palace
During 3rd –16th November 2025, Year 11-12 RorDor students assisted the public, including foreign visitors, at the waiting area at Sanam Luang. They helped distribute food and drinks and facilitated the flow of visitors who came to pay their respects to of the late Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother, at the Dusit Maha Prasat Throne Hall in the Grand Palace.
