Absolutely. I hope that the Thai corporations give them millions of baht and free services, especially the medicare ones which I guess would be invaluable. I hope the press will not hide their achievements in the mid pages and celebrate them on the front and back, and the government openly rejoices with them, and invites them to join them on stage.

However, somehow I doubt they will. Maybe a Farang company should?

Congratulations to these athletes who have come through so much to succeed plus the others that though not have won a medal but have competed and done the best they could. Unfortunately not all can be winners of a medal but the hearts of the public should go out to all of them for their endeavor.

I too hope they are given the the recognition and financial assistance they desrve.

I am personally going to call up all of my farang partner companies and clients in Thailand and suggest this to them. We as a business can not do this properly; but they can and we will contribute. How about other members here working for MNCs make the suggestion to their business - lets as a forum do something really positive for a group of people that society here spurns.
