On November 28, according to Thai media reports, Tono, a well-known Thai actor, arrived at Nakhon Phanom Ferry Terminal with his agent to take a boat to Laos and discuss the purchase of medical equipment with local hospitals. It is understood that the "One Man and The River" charity tour across the Mekong River initiated by Tono has accumulated more than 87 million baht after the donation was closed on October 22.
In order to thank the public for actively participating in the donation, Tono announced that he will become a monk on January 9, 2023 for 7 days. It is also understood that Tono's private trip to Laos did not contact Nakhon Phan No, nor did he officially inform the media of the matter, but only revealed through personal social media, saying that he will go to Laos on the 28th and 29th of this month and discuss with Nakhon Phra Noong and Lao Khammouang Hospital on the purchase of medical equipment.
