The boy of the Urak Lawoi sea, Nong Thanwa or Thanwa Hanthale, 8 years old, a little boy who carried his dream all the way from Koh Lipe, Satun Province. Nong Thanwa is a true child of the sea people. He dreams of becoming a fisherman, buying a big boat to earn money for his parents. Currently, Nong Thanwa lives with his father, mother, and younger sister in a small house on Koh Lipe. On days when the waves are calm, he will go out to fish with his father. They use a “bait sok”, which is a fishing line tied to the bait and lowered into the sea, waiting for the fish to come and eat the bait. Even on monsoon days, he is not afraid to follow his father to fish because the family’s livelihood is more important. Nong’s family’s monthly income is not much, but expenses are high because they have to buy things at tourist prices. So, Nong Thanwa helps his father catch fish and dive for shellfish to sell at various shops. Today, Nong Thanwa came to the Super10 program to ask for funds to repair his house because parts of Nong Thanwa’s house have deteriorated over time and some parts of the roof are leaking. During the big monsoon, the whole family had to sleep soaking wet because of the severity of the storm and the deterioration of the house. Our team told us that While waiting for the boat to go filming, Nong Thanwa found a fish. Nong quickly grabbed it. The crew told Nong, "No need to rush to catch it, we aren't filming yet." Nong Thanwa replied, "This fish is my money." After hearing this sentence, Add Jiew believes that everyone must feel the same way. This child is smart, grateful, and always takes responsibility for his duties. He fights and does everything for his family. The mission that the show challenges Nong Thanwa to is to dive 3 meters deep to cut the buoy on the seabed and open the sealed box to take the duck out of the box. In addition to his diving skills, we will get to see Nong Thanwa fishing with his bare hands and the seaside lifestyle. If you're ready, please put on your life jacket, jump on the boat, and let's explore Koh Lipe together. 🚤✨ Super10 every Saturday at 4:45 p.m. on Workpoint Channel, press number 23.
