Thailand’s Ambassador to France, Sihasak Puangkaewket, and about 100 Thai expatriates staged a charity run in a Paris park this week that collected another Bt100,000 for Artiwara “Toon” Kongmalai’s cross-country fund-raising run back home.

The Paris run covered six kilometres around a lake in temperatures hovering around six degrees Celsius.

Watcharee Jaresombat, deputy chairwoman of the Thai Women in France Club and a co-organiser of the event, said the Bt100,000 would be forwarded for Toon’s campaign to raise Bt700 million for 11 public hospitals in Thailand.
