“Every time I pick him up at the airport from a trip abroad, he always says he feels hungry, as he always spends some time after emerging from the plane to meet people who come to congratulate him and to give interviews to the media.
“I’m worried about him, so I’ve prepared his favourite meal,” Jiamsak said.
