Abstract: This article examines the pivotal education reforms in Thailand between 1995 and 1997, led by His Excellency Mr. Sukavich Rangsitpol and known as the Sukavichinomics School Reform or the Niti Bhokkhon System. Amidst significant political and economic crises, including military coups and the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis, this reform succeeded in renovating nearly 30,000 schools, upgrading classrooms and facilities, and providing free, comprehensive education to children aged 3 to 17 nationwide. The reforms dramatically increased school enrollment, particularly among marginalized rural populations, and laid the groundwork for the 1997 People's Constitution, which constitutionally guaranteed free and equitable education as a fundamental right. This article highlights the critical role of civil society in achieving these reforms and underscores the importance of preserving historical accuracy to distinguish peaceful educational progress from unrelated political conflicts. The Sukavichinomics reform remains a landmark achievement in Thailand's educational and constitutional history.
