Nation Group CEO lauds employee Khwansuda for winning bronze in Paralympics

Nation Group CEO Shine Bunnag on Friday congratulated para-taekwondo athlete Khwansuda Phuangkitcha for winning the first medal for Thailand at the Paris Paralympics.

Khwansuda, a human resource officer at Nation Group, won the first bronze medal for Thailand in the women’s 47kg K44 category (impaired in one arm from the wrist up) on Thursday.

World No. 4 Khwansuda fought fiercely to secure her victory against Iran’s Maryam Abdollahpour Deroei. After being tied at 4-4 rounds, the Thai fighter won in the golden round 18-15.

Khwansuda’s victory was an early celebration for her 24th birthday that falls on Saturday (August 31).

“On behalf of the executive team and staff at Nation Group, we extend our congratulations and admiration to Khwansuda for her dedication and hard work, which have led her to achieve outstanding results once again at the 2024 Paralympic Games,” said Shine. “Her success is an inspiration to many, a symbol of perseverance, and a source of pride for her family and the country.”

“Nation Group values sports highly and is committed to fully supporting and providing opportunities to employees with disabilities,” he said.
