Caring and sharing

Celebrities and executives from Saranae Channel, a 24-hour cable station that goes out on the Luck Satellite TV provider, recently joined up with the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security to help flood victims in Nakhon Sawan, Ratchaburi and Chon Buri.

Nakorn “Ple” Silachai led the volunteer team, riding his jet ski in Nakhon Sawan’s Tha Tako district to rescue victims in need and handing out survival kits to those determined to stay in their homes.

Willy McIntosh, Kiatisak “Hoy” Udomnak and Kathaleeya “Mam” McIntosh teamed with Kongkapan “Noom” Sangsuriya from the “Bang Or” programme  and visited two flood relief centres: the Learning Centre run by the Family Love Bonding Project under the Royal Patronage of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn in Ratchaburi and the Institute of Physical Education Chon Buri Campus Stadium.

Mam Kathaleeya cooked khao phad talay (seafood fried rice), radna talay (seafood stir fried rice noodle with gravy and poo phad phongkaree curry crab for the victims while Willy, Hoy and Noom entertained them with jokes and fun games.

Thitima “Ann” Prathumthip, Krisanakan “Teng Nueng” Maneepakapan from boy band BOY and luk thung singer Dao Mayuree also performed.

“These days, Thai people have to work together with one heart because the flood has affected all of us and our country. Actually, I’m also a victim. My house in Salaya was inundated,” said Willy. “Don’t lose courage!”
