O articulista, hoje, passou o dia visitando a imensa Feira na Universidade de Kasetsat.
O recinto da feira é imenso, encontrando-se à venda uma enorme gama de produtos, desde frutas, flores e material agricola e não só.
Esta foi a segunda vez que o articulista visita a Feira da Universidade, que se realiza anualmente, no mês de Janeiro.
E para não variar, havia no enorme recinto centenas de milhares de visitantes.
Folheto da Feira
O articulista parcou a sua viatura junto do monumento dos três Mestres da Universidade Kasetsart.
da esquerda para a direita, Phra Chuangkasetsilapakan (พระช่วงเกษตรศิลปการ), Luang Suvarnavachakakasikij (หลวงสุวรรณวาจกกสิกิจ), Luang Ingasrikasikan (หลวงอิงคศรีกสิการ). TEste monumento situa-se defronte do Instituto Kasetrathikarn, no interior da Universidade Kasetsar, em Bangkok..
O articulista junto a uma das muitas videiras que se encontravam na feira, mas não chegou a saber qual a variedade que se encontrava à venda.
Bananas, as havia de todos os tipos e feitios, o articulista pode ver mais de 39 variedades deste fruto.
A filha mais nova do articulista, cujo nome é o de uma orquídea, Catalya.
Orquídeas Catalya
Orquídeas de várias cores
Orquídeas
Orquídea Vanda, mais conhecida na Tailândia por Fá Mui, que é o logo da pastelaria da esposa do articulista
Eram centenas de milhares de pessoas, que pelas estreitas ruas se movimentavam dificilmente.
Como se pode ver pelas imagens, o local estava completamente compacto de visitantes
A feira estava dividida por zonas, mas a das flores com mais de 300 tendas era a que ocupava o mais maior e mais comprido espaço da feira.
A zona dedicada aos animais esteve, igualmente muito concorrida
Este lindo cachorrino, é falso, e custava somente 120 baths.
Não fui encontrar leitão da bairrada, mas fui encontrar, Siu Iok, ou seja carne de porco assada, defacto este teria sido o pai de alguns leitões.
Não faltavam bancas vendendo lenços, mas o que chamou à atenção ao articulista, era a forma como estavam colocados, de uma forma bem gira.
Objetos de culto também se podiam ver em duas ou tendas tendas, artigos lindissimos, mas cujo preço era bem elevado.
Um tipo de flor bem giro, que ficou o articulista sem saber qual o nome da mesma.
Outro tipo de flor, igualmente exótico.
Um coração bem original
KU é o símbolo da Universidade, KASETSTAR UNIVERSITY.
Esta enorme e reputada universidade, localiza-se perto da casa onde reside o articulista.
Ao visitar esta feira, me fez recordar os meus tempos de mocidade, e as feiras de S. João em Évora, embora esta, aqui na Universidade, não tivesse carroceis, circos nem automóveis de choque, era bem superior em tamanho e no número de visitantes.

History
The establishment of Kasetsart University was part of the evolution of agricultural education in the country which began with the founding of a system of technical schools. This era may be divided into three periods.
The initial period (1904-1913)
Western-styled agricultural education in Thailand began with the establishment in 1904 of the School of Sericulture or Rong-Rian Chang Mai (โรงเรียนช่างไหม) in Tambon Thung Saladaeng, Bangkok, offering a two-year program entirely in sericulture. In 1906, the program was extended to three years and included cultivation of other crops and veterinary science, and the name was changed to the School of Agriculture or Rong-Rian Vicha Karn Porh Pluke (โรงเรียนวิชาการเพาะปลูก). In 1908, the School was merged with the School of Surveying, the School of Irrigation by the Ministry of Agriculture in order to train personnel to serve in the Ministry.
The school was re-named the School of the Ministry of Agriculture and Thailand’s first tertiary-level agriculture curriculum was drawn up and was inaugurated in 1909. The school was merged with the Civil Service School in 1913 by the Government of Siam and was placed under the Ministry of Public Instruction and Religion.
The middle period (1914-1923)
During this time, the Primary School Agriculture Teacher Training School was established and offered a two-year higher education program awarding a certificate in primary school agricultural education. The school was initially located in Bangkok but was moved to Nakhon Pathom province in 1918.
The later period (1924-1942)
In 1924, the Primary School Agriculture Teacher Training School was moved to Prachuap Khiri Khan Province and a second branch of the School was established in Saraburi Province in 1926.
At this time, agricultural education at both primary and secondary school levels were provided through various technical schools. In 1931, Siam’s agricultural education was back in the hands of the Ministry of Agriculture as upcountry agricultural research stations and teacher training schools were planned to be set up in concert.
In 1933, the Mae Jo Primary School Agriculture Teacher Training School was established in Chiang Mai Province. The School is now known as Mae Jo University, Kasetsart’s sister university that bears the same insignia.
In 1935, as the number of agriculture teachers exceeded the demand, the government planned to close down three news primary agriculture teacher training schools, one of which was Mae Jo, the three founding fathers of Kasetsart, namely Luang Ingkhasikasikan, Luang Suwan Vajokkasikij, and Phra Chuangkasetsinlapakan together proposed a project whereby the Mae Jo school was retained as a secondary-level agriculture technical school. This was later elevated to become the College of Agriculture, with the status of a division in the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries.
In 1938, the Ministry of Agriculture established the Central Agriculture Station, or Kaset Klang (เกษตรกลาง) in Bang Khen District of Bangkok, and the College of Agriculture was moved down from Chiang Mai to Bangkok as well. The College offered three-year certificate programs in agriculture, cooperative science, and forestry.
On February 2, 1943, Kasetsart University (มหาวิทยาลัยเกษตรศาสตร์), translated as the “University of Agriculture”, was founded by the Kasetsart University Act of 1943. Although the name may suggest accordingly, the university offers many excellent programs considered among the top in the country including agriculture, agro-industry, forestry, fishery and engineering.

Que flores maravilhosas, como eu gosto de flores e essas são lindas.
Realmente a vida é isso. é passear, conhecer é viver a vida na sua plenitude. Depois de uma vida de trabalho e canseiras, acho que é mais que merecido este descanso para usufruires as maravilhas que a vida tem para nos dar. Um beijão grande
