Newin Chidchob Marks 68th Birthday with Charity Drive for Buriram Hospital
Buriram United president Newin Chidchob has requested donations to Buriram Hospital in lieu of gifts for his 68th birthday, opting for a private family celebration.
On October 4, 2026, Newin Chidchob, the president of Buriram United Football Club, will celebrate his 68th birthday. According to a statement posted on his official Facebook page, 'Lung Newin,' he has requested that well-wishers refrain from bringing flowers or gifts to mark the occasion. Instead, he has invited the public to participate in a charitable initiative by making donations directly to Buriram Hospital.
Newin and his family intend to hold a private merit-making ceremony at Buriram Castle. The decision to keep the event internal and low-key is attributed to the ongoing flooding situation affecting various provinces across Thailand. For those wishing to contribute, donations can be made to the Buriram Hospital account at Krung Thai Bank (account number 308-0-70047-3).
For residents and visitors in the Buriram area, this announcement serves as a reminder of the current focus on community support during the flood crisis. While the event is private, the call for donations highlights a local effort to bolster medical resources. As of now, there are no public festivities scheduled, and those interested in participating are encouraged to use the official bank channel provided by the hospital. No further details regarding public appearances have been confirmed.
