BANGKOK (NNT) - Today (October 21, 2021), a delegation from the Israeli Embassy, led by Charg d’Affaires a.i. Ms. Orna Sagiv, visited northeastern Nakhon Ratchasima province which suffers high-level flooding influenced by a recent tropical storm.

 

To help relieve the flood victims, the Embassy of Israel donated 500,000 baht to provide 1,000 survival bags filled with dry food and other necessary items. With the assistance of the office of the Governor and local administrators, the delegation visited Soong Nern District which has been heavily submerged and distributed the survival bags to the affected families.

 

During the visit, Ms. Sagiv met with Mr. Wichian Chantaranothai, the Governor of Nakhon Ratchasima Province, together with other high-level officials, to discuss further ways in which Israel could assist during the current situation.

 

“Thailand and Israel cherish a long-time friendship and we cannot stand still when our friend is facing such disaster. Israel is happy to help and we will continue to support the Thai people in times of need.” said Ms. Sagiv.

Good job Isreal 

Good job, Israel. But, like the French Embassy's actions, the US and UK's government actions and many other donations to this blighted country, it goes to show how badly the country is being managed.

 

The country seems to be run on donations from other countries, even from those who are supposed to be less well developed than Thailand. 

The government in Thailand has no shame, and it all really comes down too the nurture side of childhood. Giving to other people is the way to make merit, so the government says these countries are making merit, and is grateful for the money they save, not having to support their own population.

Why not donate something to the Palestinians?
