Siriraj Hospital Supports 'ONE FLAG THAILAND' World Record Attempt
The Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital is partnering with skydiver Thanabovorn Sirikunakorn to support a world record attempt while raising funds for hospital operating rooms.
On October 1, 2026, Khaosod Online reported that the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, has officially announced its support for the 'ONE FLAG THAILAND' project. Led by Thanabovorn Sirikunakorn, a Thai skydiver and three-time world record holder, the initiative aims to set a new world record on December 5, 2026, at Pattaya Beach.
Beyond the athletic endeavor, the project serves a philanthropic purpose. The team is collaborating with the Siriraj Foundation to raise funds for the renovation and construction of new operating rooms at Siriraj Hospital. The partnership involves key leadership from the Faculty of Medicine, including Dean Prof. Keerati Charoencholvanich, who are overseeing the medical and physical preparation of the team.
For residents and visitors, this event highlights a significant community-driven health initiative. While the primary focus is on the upcoming record attempt in Pattaya, the ongoing fundraising efforts provide an opportunity for public contribution toward improving critical medical infrastructure in Thailand. As of now, specific details regarding the nature of the world record attempt and the total fundraising target remain to be fully detailed by the organizers. Those interested in the project or the hospital's development goals should monitor official updates from the Siriraj Foundation as the December date approaches.
