At Wat Woraprot Sangkhawat in Phan Thong district, Chon Buri, a Royal Volunteer, Doctor Kriangsak Saengchan and the abbot of Wat Woraprot, Phra Khru Thawon Sattakhun collaborated with volunteer groups and the National Municipal Association of Thailand (NMAT) to distribute boiled eggs to the community.
The eggs, approximately 340 trays were donated by the abbot of Wat Sothon Wararam Worawihan, Phra Thep Phawana Wachirakun, a revered temple in Chachoengsao province.
Volunteers worked together to pack the eggs into bags, preparing them for distribution to over 200 residents who had gathered at the temple. The atmosphere was bustling as everyone contributed to the effort, ensuring that each resident received their share of the eggs.
