Uthai Thani schools implement strict measures after boy dies in school van

On Monday (August 17), Uthai Thani’s Pituksit Witthaya School instructed teachers to carefully check each bus to ensure nobody is left behind.
The two-year-old boy named Kong Bin had been left in the back of the bus on Friday (August 14) and found seven hours later unconscious, with his muscles contracted and mouth open. He later lapsed into coma and succumbed the following day.

Apart from Pituksit Wittaya School, other schools using pick-up services in Uthai Thani are also practising similar measures to ensure students’ safety. Schools have also implemented safety measures to protect students from Covid-19.
