Market vendors came together for hard-hit residents of Phra Nakhon Sri
Ayutthaya. Among the donations were four floating toilets worth 60,000
baht made by students at Sattahip Technical College after Srinuan Makmee
said he was unable to find a lavatory in the flood-stricken area during
a recent relief mission.
Bongkot thanked all the donators saying the aid will
be send to central Thailand as soon as possible.
Srinuan said he and market owner Prakorb Immsomboon
organized the “Do Not Abandon Each Other” drive as just one of the ways
the Sattahip community was reaching out to those in need up north.
Amphur residents, for example, donated 160,000 baht
cash and 18 trucks to relief efforts. He said promotion by Bongkot and
other actors and radio personalities help to raise the profile of
fund-raising drives.
