Phetchabun family’s loss turns into gift of life for four
Photo courtesy of KhaoSod By Puntid Tantivangphaisal A significant act of compassion unfolded at Phetchabun Hospital, where a family decided to donate the organs of a 42 year old programmer who was declared brain dead. This generous donation is set to benefit four individuals in need. Chawalit Iamsaad, who hailed from Bueng Sam Phan district in Phetchabun, was employed as a programmer for PTT, working remotely from home. On Monday morning, December 23, his sister discovered him collapsed outside the bathroom. Medical assistance was immediately summoned, and he was transported to Bueng Sam Phan Hospital before being transferred to Phetchabun Hospital. Unfortunately, doctors later confirmed that Chawalit had suffered brain death due to severe bleeding in the brain, which is considered a medical form of death. The family, understanding the profound implications of organ donation, embraced the opportunity to contribute to the well-being of others. Chawalit’s sister, 37 year old Ketsinee, shared that her brother was known for his charitable nature, making this decision a fitting tribute to his life. She added that she had already registered her intention to donate her organs with the Thai Red Cross Society, indicating her support for such initiatives. “This is a significant act of charity by my brother, as the organs donated can offer new life to several individuals.” At the hospital, Doctor Srisuda Songthamwat, the director of Phetchabun Hospital, formally recognised the family’s generosity. She presented a certificate of appreciation and a wreath in honour of the deceased. Chawalit’s mother and sister accepted these tokens of gratitude on behalf of the family. Doctor Srisuda elaborated on the medical condition of the patient, explaining that despite comprehensive medical efforts, Chawalit’s condition was irreversible. The donated organs, including two kidneys and two eyes, have the potential to save or significantly improve the lives of up to four individuals. She hopes this act of kindness will inspire others in Phetchabun and across Thailand to consider organ donation, reported KhaoSod. “Giving organs to others is a great act of charity, offering the gift of life to those in need.” Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-12-26 -

Border run to either Ranong/Myanmar or Vientiane friendship bridge
Hi, I have an Israeli passport (located at Koh Phangan), i got into Thailand 2 months ago with Exemption 60 days stamp, just got yesterday 30 days extension at the immigration, so in 1 month I'll have to leave Thailand. 1. Would I be able to get 60 more days with a land border run? or is it only possible by entering via air? 2. Between the 2 options (Myanmar and Vientiane) which one would be better/safer? Thank you! -

Do you get on well with Thai People?
Thats Sociology and Psychology not Physics !!!... But... anyone for whom money has any form of influence on friendship is not a friend, of course, everyone knows this. I recall a Western friend, years ago... He became 'good friends' with a Thai guy who worked in a bar (a regular pub type bar)... a month passed and the Thai lad asked to borrow some money (I can't recall the amount but it wasn't a lot, maybe about 5000 baht)... When I heard this I pointed out that he'll never see the money again... it was no surprise that the Thai guy disappeared. Over two decades - none of my Thai friends have ever talked about or asked for money... it helps that they are financially independent and most likely wealthier than I. Thus - I think one of the key factors in establishing good friends here is understanding underlying intentions, or rather, being able to eradicate less than honourable intentions - thus, if establishing friends with someone of similar means the 'financial' stigma disappears*. (*caveat - wealthy people also rip others off - so care still needs to be taken when friendships with those of any nationality is evolving).
