rooster59 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Actors to the rescue as Thai beauty's Austrian dad needs blood after accident Image: TNews TNews reported that the father of Thai Channel 7 actress and model Cat Stephany Auernig, 24, was helped by blood donations from two actors as he went into surgery for an accident suffered last month. Sixty three year old Rupert Auernig - who Tnews said was Australian but was listed as Austrian on a fan page - needed surgery on his left leg. "Steph" had made an Instagram appeal for Type A blood and well known actors Ek and Mick stepped up to the plate, said her mother in an online post of thanks. Steph was born in Pattaya in January 1994 to Rupert and Somrak Auernig. She went to the Regent's International School and became Miss Teen Thailand in 2009. Her father was treated in Chonburi Hospital though it is not known what accident befell him.

Despite of what many people think, not all Australians are white-skinned, blonde hair anglo-saxons with anglo-saxon names. In fact, in Sydney (Australia's most populated city), most common surnames are not all anglo-saxon types. In Sydney, 6 of our the top 10 surnames come from asian ethnicities, not from an anglo-saxon background. So your 'typical Australian surname' can be Lee, Nguyen and/or Chen. Yes, they are 'real' Australians. Myself also being Asian Australian.

Yes, a bit like all those who think Thailand is an island off the coast of China or that Nigeria is bigger than Niger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djayz Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) I think that was rather nice of those actors to donate blood and help save a life. I have to admitt that I don't even know what blood group I am... I keep meaning to donate blood but... never get around to it... Gute Besserung Rupert!

Sent documents via Federal Express to a friend in Thailand. He never received them after a few weeks. So I went back to the FedExOffice and made an inquiry about the whereabouts of those papers. Finally they admitted they were sent to Taiwan... That was about 20 years ago. Unbelievable ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if all you've got to do is float over on a raft from Vietnam to be considered a real Australian, fair enough. Most Thais wouldn't be able to point out the place on a map, as for Austria......forget it. Other places they struggle with, are: America, Africa, or even neighbours like Laos, and Cambodia, which they still insist on calling Kampuchea.
