The meeting took place in the Deputy Rector’s conference room, Policy and Planning Division, 2nd floor, Office of the Rector, Phayao University.
The Phra That Jom Thong Robe Procession ceremony in Phayao Province is an event that upholds beautiful traditions, combined with the ancient cultural beliefs of Buddhists who believe that offering cloth to cover the stupa is akin to presenting a robe to the Buddha. This is considered the highest auspicious act, and it is a significant tradition that is upheld once again. Phayao University, in collaboration with the Phayao Provincial Cultural Office, organizes this event annually.
