Lampang Authorities Seek Parents of Abandoned Eight-Month-Old Infant

According to a report by Khaosod Online Thailand, the Lampang Children and Family Home has issued a public appeal to locate the parents or relatives of an infant girl identified as 'Nam Nuea.' The child, who is currently eight months old, was born at Lampang Hospital on January 20, 2026.

Authorities state that the parents visited the infant at the hospital approximately three times following her birth but have since become unreachable. The child has remained under the care of the provincial children's home after being left at the hospital. The Lampang Children and Family Home is now requesting that anyone with information regarding the family contact their office located at 164 Lampang-Jae Hom Road, Nikhom Phatthana, Mueang Lampang, or reach out via their official contact channels.

For residents and expatriates in Thailand, this case highlights the local procedures for child welfare and the role of provincial social services in managing abandoned minors. While the authorities are actively seeking the family to resolve the child's status, the reasons behind the parents' disappearance remain unconfirmed. It is currently unclear what the long-term legal status of the child will be if the parents are not located. Those with relevant information are encouraged to contact the Lampang Children and Family Home directly.
