The groundwork and preparation for the university's establishment, however, took place almost half a century earlier. The worldwide economic, social and political changes in the late nineteenth century compelled Siam, as Thailand was officially called until 1939, to adapt in order to avoid Western colonization. King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) introduced a royal policy to strengthen and improve the government so that the country could successfully resist the tides of colonialism. One of the major parts of this policy was to improve the Siamese educational system to produce capable personnel to work in both the public and private sectors. To this end, a school was founded in 1871 at the Royal Pages Barracks within the Grand Palace compound. Then, in 1882, King Chulalongkorn upgraded the school and gave it the name “Suankularb”. In the same year, the King also established other schools, including the Army Cadet School, the Cartographic School, the School for Princes and the School for Dhamma Studies. This quote, taken from King Chulalongkorn's royal speech to members of the royal family and civil servants, is confirmation of His Majesty's belief in equal educational opportunity. The King granted the policy to set up schools throughout the kingdom, together with institutions of higher learning, and declared, “…education in our country must have the highest priority, which I am determined to develop.” In 1899, Prince Damrong Rajanupab, a younger brother of King Chulalongkorn and the Minister of Interior at the time, submitted a proposal to establish the Civil Service Training School, with Phraya Wisutsuriyasak (M.R. Pia Malakul — who later assumed the title of Chao Phraya Phrasadej Surendradhibodi) as the principal. However, since the students had to work as royal page trainees in their third year 4 | of study before graduation, the name of the school was changed to the Royal Pages School in 1902. The Royal Pages School progressed steadily and produced an increasing number of graduates for the government each year. Recalling the original intention of his late father, King Chulalongkorn, to establish an institution of higher learning, King Vajiravudh (Rama VI) ordered that the Royal Pages School be elevated into an institution of higher education and named it The Civil Service College of King Chulalongkorn on January 1, 1911. In the beginning, the course of study focused on government. Eventually, the curriculum expanded to meet the needs of the kingdom and included more disciplines, such as law, international relations, commerce, agriculture, engineering, medicine, and teacher education. The Civil Service College then used proceeds donated by members of the royal family, government officials and ordinary citizens to commission a statue of King Chulalongkorn the Great. Once completed, about 800,000 baht of the collected funds remained in the Royal
