According to a report from Khaosod Online, Thai television schedules for the upcoming weekend feature a mix of personal profiles and cultural exploration.

On Channel 3, the program 'Tee Tai Krua' (14:15) will feature an interview with 'Ajarn Beer,' a figure known as 'Khon Tuen Tham' (The Awakened One). The segment promises to delve into his life story, transitioning from his background as a temple boy to his current spiritual path, while also addressing recent public speculation regarding his personal life and rumors involving actress Kwan Usamanee.

For those interested in Thailand’s rich heritage, the program 'Tiew La Mai Thailand World' (05:05) will visit Wat Bowonniwet Vihara. This historic temple, which is over 200 years old, is noted for its unique architectural blend of Thai and Chinese styles. The episode aims to showcase the site as a destination for both spiritual reflection and artistic appreciation, highlighting its appeal to visitors of all generations.

These programs offer residents and travelers a glimpse into contemporary Thai media interests, ranging from celebrity culture to the preservation of historic religious sites. While the television segments provide insight into these topics, viewers should note that the personal details shared in celebrity-focused interviews are subject to the perspectives of the individuals involved.
