About 30 students of a school in Ubon Ratchathani province were taken to the provincial hospital on Saturday after they suffered from mass hysteria as they attended an ethical training course in a temple.

 

Rescue workers were rushed to Wat Supattanaramvoraviharn in Muang district after they were told that some 30 students suffered cramps and hyperventilation while they were attending an ethical course.

 

A doctor at the hospital who treated the students said they suffered from mass hysteria due mainly from stress.

 

The students were told to take a rest at the hospital and their parents were informed to bring them back home.

 

After the incident, the school cancelled the course which was due to be completed on Sunday.

Moral of the story? Thais are incompatible with the concept of ethics...

These happened in Afghanistan every so often, in girls' schools - usually there was an initial press report placing blame on Taliban for poisoning the girls, but it generally worked out that it was some collective thing that happens with young teen girls. Now, if there's any demographic that is for good reason under a shitload of stress, I'd say "Afghan girls going to school" is a prime choice! Not sure what stressed out the Thais, other than some kind of possible cellular aversion to a course of ethics... or perhaps simple yet severe cognitive dissonance between what they are being told in other parts of their lives, contrasted with the messages they were receiving on more conventional ethical principles. On the other hand, who knows what kinds of additional stuff has been recently added to their curriculum, maybe it just blew their minds it was getting so weird...
